109-15 Queens Boulevard, Queens, NY 11375

109-15 Queens Boulevard is a 6-story, 76-unit residential building located in Forest Hills, constructed in 1939 and currently owned by Morley Kaye. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past several years, with the most recent being a mold-related complaint in April 2024 that was inspected by HPD, though no violations were found. Prior concerns include a pest infestation complaint in October 2022 (which HPD could not inspect) and an emergency heat and hot water outage in November 2018, which was reportedly resolved during HPD's response.

The property has documented bedbug infestations, with the most recent case reported in December 2024 affecting one unit, though no prior infestations were reported between 2021-2023. Housing Maintenance Code violations were documented in April 2024, including issues with kitchen ceiling plaster in apartment 1B and a missing inspection certificate frame in the first-story public hall. A sidewalk shed complaint was filed in September 2020, but no violations were found upon inspection.

The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of both sanitary and infrastructure concerns, though recent data suggests some improvements in issues like pest control, with only one unit affected by bedbugs in the most recent reporting period. The property has also maintained compliance with bedbug eradication protocols when infestations have occurred, as evidenced by the reporting and eradication data. While the building's age may contribute to some of these maintenance challenges, the frequency and variety of issues reported indicate ongoing attention to basic habitability concerns is required. The most recent violations from April 2024 particularly highlight both aesthetic and compliance issues regarding building maintenance requirements.
