110-68 Corona Avenue, Queens, NY 11368

The 8-unit, 4-story building at 110-68 Corona Avenue, constructed in 2002 and currently owned by Gregory Raposo, has experienced several significant maintenance and regulatory issues over recent years. Most notably, there is an active violation regarding unauthorized alterations in the 1F apartment involving a floor pierce and spiral staircase installation, with associated violations from 2020 concerning improper occupancy of the cellar area, which was allegedly converted from its original accessory/storage use to contain additional facilities. Between 2023-2024, the building has faced multiple violations for failing to file required external low-pressure inspections, with records indicating a lapse in boiler maintenance documentation as well.

The building has documented recurring maintenance issues, including water-related problems in bathroom facilities, and air quality concerns. Recent inspections in 2024 noted rodent-related issues, though most recent inspection passed, suggesting some improvement in pest control measures. The property has gone through multiple environmental inspections revealing various deficiencies, including spalling bricks and cracks requiring attention.

Between 2020 and 2023, there were several emergency Housing Maintenance Code complaints regarding plumbing, paint/plaster, and heating issues, particularly affecting Unit 1B which exhibited bathroom-related problems including mold, water leaks, and plaster defects. Bedbug reports show one incident in 2020-2021 with successful eradication, while more recent filings (2022-2023) reported no infestations. The building's history shows a pattern of maintenance challenges, particularly in relation to unauthorized modifications, plumbing systems, and building inspections, with some improvements noted in recent years through compliance inspections.
