104-31 43rd Avenue, Queens, NY 11368

The three-story, three-unit building at 104-31 43rd Avenue in Corona, owned by Shahinur Rahman and constructed in 1965, has experienced several concerning maintenance issues in recent years, with the most significant problems occurring in mid-2024. A cluster of complaints in July 2024 resulted in violations for unsanitary conditions, including mold and sewage issues, as well as problems with doors and windows.

These recent complaints followed multiple indoor air quality concerns in June-July 2024, specifically related to chemical odors and ventilation. The building currently has multiple open violations from July 2024, including issues with mold, pest infestation, and problems affecting safety systems such as defective smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. The apartment 3RDFL appears to be particularly affected, with violations noted for bathroom mold, broken fixtures, and door issues.

Looking at historical data, the building has faced various problems since at least December 2020, including heat and hot water issues, pest infestations, and maintenance problems like ceiling paint/plaster issues that required emergency responses from HPD. The property also has outstanding requirements regarding bedbug reporting, with violations noted in 2023 and 2024 despite previous filings indicating no infestation during the periods from 2019-2021, and a failed rodent inspection in 2015. While some issues have been resolved through inspections and repairs, including a heat and hot water restoration in December 2020, the concentration of recent violations and complaints suggests ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly affecting the 3RDFL apartment and building safety systems.
