102-39 47th Avenue, Queens, NY 11368

The three-unit residential building at 102-39 47th Avenue in Corona, owned by Tianfeng Zhang and constructed in 2004, has had several significant regulatory interactions over recent years. Most notably, between 2021 and 2024, the property has been subject to multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations regarding bedbug reporting compliance, with the most recent violation recorded in April 2024.

An extensive series of Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations in late 2021points to serious issues including unauthorized occupancy, illegal conversions, and safety concerns, though all have been resolved. These violations included improper use of the garage space, unauthorized modifications to stairways, non-compliant door hardware, and maintaining blocked exit pathways. The building's occupancy and usage history shows a pattern of regulatory scrutiny between 2020 and 2022, with complaints about illegal conversions and non-conforming zoning practices.

Noteworthy improvements include the property passing the most recent bedbug reports for the periods of 2022-2023 and 2023-2024 with no reported infestations. Earlier rodent inspections in 2012 and 2015 showed mixed results, with one initial inspection in 2012 failing for unspecified reasons, but subsequent inspections in both 2012 and 2015 passing. The building's most recent bedbug report (2024) and all Housing Maintenance Code violations (most recent 2024) suggest improved compliance with current regulatory requirements, though the historical pattern of violations indicates a period of significant maintenance and regulatory challenges around 2021-2022.
