59-11 48th Avenue, Queens, NY 11377

This three-story, three-unit residential building located at 59-11 48th Avenue in Maspeth, owned by Sung Hwa Tong, has been subject to recurring regulatory issues over the past several years. Most notably, there is an ongoing pattern of Housing Maintenance Code violations related to bedbug reporting compliance, with open violations recorded in April 2024, March 2023, March 2022, and April 2021, all citing failure to file the required annual bedbug reports as mandated by HPD rules.

These violations remain open as of the latest available data from October 2023. Additionally, the building has a significant environmental control board violation from March 2018, where a penalty of $2,500 was imposed for the removal or defacement of a written posted vacate order, specifically related to an illegal apartment situation that had been partially vacated in December 2008.

This violation, which had an active status as of the last check in October 2023, demonstrates historical concerns about unauthorized occupancy conditions in the building. While the building was constructed in 1993 as a Class A residential structure, these documented violations over time suggest ongoing regulatory compliance challenges that may impact resident safety and comfort.
