48-34 48th Street, Queens, NY 11377

The 6-unit, 3-story residential building at 48-34 48th Street in Sunnyside, built in 1928 and currently owned by A&P Real Estate LLC, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most concerning is the current status of Apartment 3F, which has multiple open violations as of September 2023, including lack of electricity, missing carbon monoxide detectors, defective self-closing doors, inadequate lighting, various repair needs, and inadequate gas supply to fixtures. The building has also experienced recurring electrical problems, with two power outage incidents recorded in August and September 2023, along with issues related to cooking gas and appliance problems.

A bedbug report filed in July 2025 indicates one infested unit during the 2023-2024 period, though no eradication was reported. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of electrical and safety-related issues, with active violations as of 2023 including problems with smoke detectors and door hardware. Looking at the building's longer-term history, rodent inspections between 2010 and 2013 show mixed results, with initial failures in compliance inspections suggesting past pest control challenges.

The property has had multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations issued, though many appear to be addressed by their closed status, such as the 2024 bedbug reporting requirement. The building has seen various emergency complaints requiring HPD intervention, all of which were closed within a few days. These recurring issues, particularly the ongoing open violations in Apartment 3F and recent bedbug infestation, suggest continuing maintenance challenges within the property.
