48-14 111th Street, Queens, NY 11368

The two-story, five-unit building at 48-14 111th Street in Corona, owned by Brenda Cabrera, has experienced several significant maintenance issues since its construction in 1931. Most recently, from 2021 to 2024, there have been consistent violations regarding bedbug reporting compliance, with the building failing to file annual bedbug reports as required under NYC Housing Maintenance Code (HMC) regulations.

While the most recent bedbug report from August 2024 shows no current infestation with 4 units having been previously infested and successfully treated, this pattern of violations indicates ongoing management challenges. The building has a documented history of heating system problems, including a heat/hot water complaint in February 2020 where HPD was unable to gain access to inspect the issue.

In addition to these issues, there are several open violations from August 2018 that require attention, including problems with building safety signage, apartment door self-closing mechanisms, heating system access notices, and window guards in Apartment 2F, as well as concerns about an iron ladder to the roof scuttle opening. The property has also faced rodent control challenges, particularly in 2012 when rat activity was documented, though subsequent inspections showed improvement. While some recent violations have been addressed, the building's history suggests ongoing maintenance and compliance challenges that require monitoring.
