52-17 Van Loon Street, Queens, NY 11373

The four-story, three-unit building at 52-17 Van Loon Street in Elmhurst, owned by Tommy Cheng, has been in operation since 2004. The property has experienced a recurring pattern of Housing Maintenance Code violations related to bedbug reporting requirements, with notices issued in 2021, 2022, 2023, and most recently in 2024, all indicating the need to file annual bedbug reports in accordance with HPD regulations. However, the building's official bedbug reporting history presents a generally positive picture of infestation management.

The most recent filing for the period from November 2022 to October 2023 shows no infested units or units requiring eradication. Prior to this, the 2023 report indicated three eradicated units, while previous two years' reports (2021-22 and 2020-21) showed no infested or eradicated units at all. An unrelated complaint regarding an illegal conversion was filed in May 2019, though it was closed five months later without any access being granted for inspection.

Despite the periodic administrative violations regarding bedbug report filings, the actual infestation history of the building suggests effective pest management, with most reporting periods showing either no infestations or eradicated units. The most recent bedbug report filing in October 2024 shows a clean record for the previous year. The building's relatively young age (built in 2004) and consistent three-unit configuration suggests it has maintained its original structure and occupancy limits over the years.
