103-01 Corona Avenue, Queens, NY 11368

The two-story, four-unit residential building at 103-01 Corona Avenue in Corona, Queens, has experienced several significant maintenance issues, particularly during 2018-2019. Notable concerns included multiple emergency complaints regarding plumbing problems (specifically basins/sinks), window frame issues, mold infestations, and some water leak problems, all of which were closed due to the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) being unable to gain access for inspections.

The building has also faced recurring issues with mold and pests, as evidenced by multiple emergency complaints in late 2018. These problems prompted three consecutive Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2022-2024 related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports, though recent filings from 2025 and 2024 show no reported infestations or eradications, suggesting improved conditions in this regard. More recent history shows the building's maintenance issues have generally stabilized, with no major violations or complaints recorded since 2019.

The Department of Buildings received complaints about an illegal conversion and inadequate drainage in 2019, and a fence-related complaint in 2022, though all inspections resulted in either no violations or inspectors being unable to gain access. The property has consistently passed rodent inspections in 2012 and 2015, and importantly, the building's recent bedbug reports for 2023-2025 have documented zero infested units, indicating effective pest management. The current owner, Janet Mejia-guerra, has maintained the property for several years, and while the building experienced significant maintenance challenges in 2018-2019, the most recent data suggests improved conditions with respect to both bedbug management and overall maintenance compliance.
