81-11 57th Avenue, Queens, NY 11373

The three-story, four-unit residential building at 81-11 57th Avenue in Elmhurst, owned by Antonio Mourtil, was constructed in 2014 and has experienced several notable events over the years. Most recently, the building encountered a heat and hot water emergency in September 2022, though these services were reportedly restored within one day. The building has maintained a clean record concerning bedbug infestations, with no reported cases or eradication efforts documented in the past five years (2020-2025).

A significant issue arose in 2019 when multiple violations were recorded related to unauthorized modifications and occupancy discrepancies, including an illegal conversion of spaces and unauthorized partition walls, leading to Environmental Control Board (ECB) penalties totaling $3,750. An active violation remains regarding failure to certify correction of an immediately hazardous (Class 1) ECB violation from August 2019. The property also has two outstanding Department of Buildings (DOB) violations from April 2019 pertaining to elevator certification requirements.

Prior to these incidents, the building's history shows an illegal conversion complaint in 2019, and a requirement to file an annual bedbug report was issued in March 2022. The building's owners have consistently complied with bedbug reporting requirements from 2020 through 2025, showing no infestations during any reporting periods. While the property has faced some regulatory challenges regarding unauthorized modifications and occupancy compliance, recent years have shown improved conditions, with no new significant complaints or violations recorded between 2022 and 2025, aside from the outstanding issues from 2019. The building's relatively recent construction date and absence of recent major violations suggest a stabilization of conditions in recent years, though the outstanding violations from 2019 remain unresolved as of the current date.
