125-05 23rd Avenue, Queens, NY 11356

The two-story, four-unit residential building at 125-05 23rd Avenue in College Point, built in 1931 and currently owned by Gang Zheng, has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water systems, particularly during 2018-2019 when multiple complaints were filed through 311 and HPD regarding these services affecting both individual apartments and the entire building. The most recent heating issues were reported throughout 2019, with inspections confirming temporary restorations of services, though some access issues hindered complete evaluations.

The building faced four separate illegal conversion complaints between 2018-2019, all resulting in "Inspector Unable To Gain Access" outcomes, and has had A-class violations in 2019 requiring various safety-related postings in the first-story public hall, including information about gas leaks and housing guides, though these were subsequently certified as corrected. More recent records show improved conditions, with no heat/hot water complaints since 2019. The building has maintained a clean bedbug record since 2020, with three consecutive annual reports (2021-2024) showing no infestations, successful eradications, or re-infestations.

The most recent inspections from 2023-2024 primarily focused on annual bedbug reporting compliance, which appears to be properly addressed based on the submitted filings. A recent complaint regarding after-hours work in late 2023 was investigated and found to warrant no violations. While the building has a history of basic maintenance issues, particularly during 2018-2019, the current records indicate no ongoing major infrastructure problems or pest control issues, suggesting improved management practices since that earlier period.
