106-19 50th Avenue, Queens, NY 11368

The 24-unit, 4-story building at 106-19 50th Avenue in Corona, owned by O. Raposo LLC and constructed in 2004, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, particularly relating to water damage and pest control. Between 2020 and 2024, there were multiple reports of water leaks, including heavy flows and damp spots, with some complaints requiring emergency response from the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD).

There have also been recurring issues with mold and unsanitary conditions, particularly in 2021 and 2022. More recently, in 2024, violations were documented regarding apartment 4C, including problems with carbon monoxide detectors, a rodent infestation, and door maintenance issues, though these violations are listed as closed. Current active violations from 2023 relate to the failure to file required external low-pressure inspections for three consecutive years (2018-2020).

The building has shown some concerning patterns of maintenance issues, particularly during 2021-2022, with multiple complaints and violations relating to water damage, pest control, and general building maintenance. However, there have been no reported bedbug infestations in the past three years (2021-2024), and recent rodent inspections in 2022 showed varying results, including one failed inspection for unspecified reasons. The property management has generally responded to maintenance complaints, with most being closed, though there have been instances where inspectors were unable to gain access to conduct inspections. The building's systems and common areas appear to have ongoing maintenance needs, as evidenced by the various violations and service requests regarding doors, intercom systems, and emergency equipment.
