51-59 47th Street, Queens, NY 11377
The two-family house at 51-59 47th Street in Sunnyside, owned by Abdul Khan, has experienced significant maintenance issues in recent years, with the most pressing concerns emerging in 2025. Multiple complaints from April 2025, including unsanitary conditions (garbage storage, sewage, mold, pests), door/window problems, and wall issues, were documented.
Though Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) attempted to inspect these complaints, access could not be gained, and the complaints were closed with recommendations for re-submission. A similar pattern emerged in June 2025, with successful service requests related to mold and pests being classified as emergency and non-emergency respectively. The building's history reveals ongoing safety and maintenance concerns, including multiple violations noted in 2018 regarding electrical wiring conditions, window issues, and security door problems, all of which were subsequently addressed and closed.
A 2020 inspection revealed concerns about the fire escape's drop ladder shoe, and multiple complaints about boiler issues were filed in September 2020, though inspectors were often unable to gain access for verification. The property has active permits from late 2019-2020, suggesting some level of ongoing maintenance or improvements. While historical violations show a pattern of maintenance challenges, the most recent complaints from 2025 indicate continued issues that remain unresolved due to inspection access limitations.
