86-30 Grand Avenue, Queens, NY 11373

86-30 Grand Avenue is a 5-story, 10-unit residential building located in Elmhurst, constructed in 1945 and currently owned by Kai Chan. The building has experienced several maintenance issues over the past few years, with the most significant being a water leak problem in December 2019 that affected Apartment 3A, leading to violations for both water damage and required repairs to plaster and paint surfaces. This incident prompted inspections from both HPD and the Department of Buildings, though the water leak issue appears to have been resolved.

Between 2019 and 2024, the building has received four consecutive annual citations related to bedbug reporting requirements, though recent filings from 2025 and 2024 indicate no current infestations or eradication efforts, suggesting compliance with this requirement has been achieved. The building's maintenance history shows a mix of resolved and ongoing issues, with the most recent building inspection in April 2024 confirming compliance with bedbug reporting requirements. A 2020 complaint regarding elevator service was investigated but found to have no violations.

A permit for unspecified work was issued in March 2019. While the building has had its share of maintenance challenges, the most recent records indicate improvements in compliance with bedbug reporting and resolution of the 2019 water leak issue. The property has maintained its Class A designation and currently meets the basic requirements for residential buildings in New York City, though prospective tenants should be aware of its history of water-related and pest management issues.
