5-23 College Point Blvd, Queens, NY 11356

The two-family house at 5-23 College Point Blvd, owned by Luan Qiu, has experienced several maintenance issues over recent years, with the most significant cluster of problems occurring in mid-2023. During July 2023, multiple violations were documented involving various components of the building's interior, including walls, ceilings, floors, and windows, with particular attention needed to paint/plaster conditions and flooring.

The most recent complaint, filed in October 2023 regarding cabinet issues, was closed in April 2024 without any violations being issued. Prior to this, between May 10-13, 2020, there were issues with heat/hot water and electrical systems, including a power outage and no lighting problem, though these complaints were also closed without violations.

Of particular note is the building's history of concerning patterns of housing maintenance issues, with three separate illegal conversion complaints filed in 2024, though all were marked "Inspector Unable To Gain Access" on final attempts. The most recent of these, filed in September 2024, remains active as of July 2025. Additionally, a permit-related complaint from July 2023 regarding lack of permits was also marked as "Inspector Unable To Gain Access – 2nd Final Attempt." While many complaints have been resolved without formal violations, the frequency and nature of these issues, particularly the ongoing concerns about possible illegal conversion activity, are noteworthy and indicate a building with recurring maintenance needs and compliance verification challenges.
