84-33 56th Avenue, Queens, NY 11373

The three-unit residential building at 84-33 56th Avenue in Elmhurst, owned by Youjie Chen, has been standing since 1965 and is classified as a Class A building. The property has experienced one notable health and safety incident, with a DOHMH-logged complaint about standing water in August 2019, though this was resolved within ten days.

The building has been subjected to repeated administrative scrutiny regarding bedbug reporting compliance, with Housing Maintenance Code violations recorded annually between 2021 and 2024, though the most recent bedbug reports for the periods ending October 2024 and October 2025 indicate zero infested units, suggesting successful resolution of these compliance issues. The building has recently been involved in a Department of Buildings investigation regarding a potential illegal conversion, with a complaint entered in February 2023.

However, this complaint was closed in July 2023 with the inspector unable to gain access for verification. While the building is categorized as Class A and is three stories tall, the unit count and building height appear typical for the Elmhurst neighborhood, though the presence of multiple regulatory violations over several years warrants attention. The property has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements since 2021, as evidenced by the most recent filings showing no current infestations or eradication cases, though previous years' violations were noted for not filing the required annual reports.
