85-03 57th Road, Queens, NY 11373

The five-story, seven-unit residential building at 85-03 57th Road in Elmhurst, currently owned by Shufang Zheng, has a notable history of regulatory scrutiny since its 1935 construction. Most recently, in December 2023, a complaint regarding a "7P" issue was investigated but resulted in no violations being found.

The building faced several significant events in 2022, including a complaint about certificate of occupancy issues in April (though inspectors were unable to gain access), and an April complaint regarding permit issues, neither of which resulted in violations. A more serious concern emerged in 2018 regarding illegal plumbing work, which resulted in a stop work order that was fully rescinded by April 2021.

The building's compliance history also includes an October 2018 violation for failing to certify the correction of an immediately hazardous Class 1 ECB violation, which was ultimately dismissed in November 2020 after the necessary payments were processed. Throughout the building's documented history, while several complaints and regulatory issues have arisen, most investigations have either found no violations or resulted in the timely resolution of concerns. The most recent inspection history shows no significant ongoing issues, though the building's pattern of complaints and regulatory scrutiny over recent years suggests a history of compliance challenges that have generally been addressed, though sometimes requiring multiple inspection attempts or follow-up actions.
