9-15 College Place, Queens, NY 11356

The three-story, two-family house at 9-15 College Place in College Point has recently presented several significant maintenance challenges, particularly in 2024. The property, built in 2004 and currently owned by Miriam Guevara, has had multiple issues requiring attention from the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD). Most notably, in March 2024, the building received several violations related to unsanitary conditions including pest infestations (specifically mice and roaches) and multiple water leak problems, including both heavy flow and slow leak situations.

These violations were categorized as Class B, indicating they require correction but are not immediately hazardous. The unit also has several open violations related to damaged plaster surfaces and painting requirements, particularly concerning ceilings in the first-floor apartment. Earlier in the year, between January and February 2024, the building experienced various maintenance issues including problems with paint/plaster on walls and ceilings, plumbing concerns in the bathtub/shower, and damp spots indicating water leaks - though these complaints were resolved without violations being issued.

In terms of inspections, a rodent compliance inspection in April 2025 resulted in a pass, though an initial inspection in March 2025 failed for unspecified reasons. An illegal hotel room complaint from September 2023 resulted in two inspection attempts in March 2024, but the inspector was unable to gain access. Despite these various issues, it's worth noting that many complaints have been addressed through the proper channels, though as of this writing, several violations from March 2024 remain open and require resolution.
