18-27 121st Street, Queens, NY 11356

The property at 18-27 121st Street in College Point is a two-family house built in 2004, currently owned by Ling Ling Weng. The building experienced a significant cluster of emergency housing maintenance code complaints on May 10, 2023, all of which were addressed by May 14, 2023, including issues related to mold, door/window conditions, carbon monoxide detectors, and smoke detectors.

The New York City Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) conducted inspections of these complaints on May 12, 2023, resulting in two specific violations: one regarding a defective lock assembly in the entrance to the second-floor apartment, and another concerning visible mold conditions in the bathroom ceiling of the same unit. These violations were officially certified as corrected in June 2023.

Additionally, there was a separate complaint regarding potential illegal hotel rooms in the area, recorded on December 21, 2022, which reached two final inspection attempts in February 2023; however, the inspector was unable to gain access to the property, and no violations were confirmed in this case. The building's recent history suggests attention to maintenance issues, particularly regarding safety systems (fire and carbon monoxide detection) and some persistent unsanitary conditions. While the property was built in 2004, the documented issues in 2023 occurred nearly two decades later and were addressed through proper channels, though they included concerns about both safety equipment and mold that may have impacted resident comfort and safety at that time.
