104-46 43rd Avenue, Queens, NY 11368

The three-story, two-unit building at 104-46 43rd Avenue in Corona, owned by Ana Cruz, was constructed in 1970 and is currently designated as a converted Class A building. The property has experienced several notable issues over the past few years, with a particular focus on bedbug reporting compliance. Since 2021, there have been multiple open violations related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as required under § HMC, with inspections conducted in March and April of 2022-2024 not showing resolution of this compliance issue.

In November 2019, there was a significant heating problem reported for the third-floor apartment, which was inspected by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) and resulted in a violation being issued (#20159340). This heating issue was documented as an emergency complaint on November 15, 2019, and while it was officially closed two days later, it indicates past concerns about building systems. The building's most recent documented rodent inspection, conducted in March 2015, resulted in a passing grade, suggesting no current rodent issues have been documented since then.

The property underwent a change in bedbug infestation reporting status between 2019-2020, as evidenced by the filing completed on August 31, 2021, showing zero infested units during that period. While this indicates no known infestations during that specific reporting period, it should be noted that this report filing was completed well after the reporting period end date of October 31, 2020, representing a potential compliance issue. The building's record suggests ongoing challenges with regulatory compliance, particularly in the area of bedbug reporting requirements, and a past heating system issue affecting at least one unit.
