121-13 14th Road, Queens, NY 11356

The two-family house at 121-13 14th Road in College Point, owned by Keung Cheng, has undergone several significant events since its construction in 1930. Most notably, there was an extensive period of violations and safety concerns between 2021-2024, including multiple tenant safety inspection violations related to failure to post/distribute required safety information and a full stop work order in September 2021.

These issues resulted in multiple Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations during the same period, including penalties for electrical work without proper permits and failure to post required tenant protection information, though all were subsequently resolved. A recent ECB violation from March 2024 indicates ongoing compliance issues, specifically related to failure to file a required external low pressure inspection from 2022, which remains active as of April 2025. There are also unresolved boiler inspection violations from 2019.

In terms of maintenance and pest control, the building has shown consistent attention to bedbug management, with no infestations reported in any of the annual filings from 2019-2025. The property received its only permitted work approval in late 2019 for electrical work, though this was somewhat paradoxical given the preceding violations for unpermitted electrical work in 2021. While the building experienced significant regulatory scrutiny between 2021-2024, the absence of recent tenant complaints or bedbug issues over the past three years could suggest improved conditions, though this should be interpreted cautiously given the nature of building violations and their potential impact on resident safety and comfort.
