162-01 Powells Cove Blvd, Queens, NY 11357

162-01 Powells Cove Boulevard is a 6-story, 108-unit residential building constructed in 1956, currently owned by Stacey Pankavich. The property has experienced significant and recurring heating system issues throughout 2025, with multiple complaints about inadequate heat and hot water affecting both individual apartments and the entire building between February and April 2025.

While inspections were conducted in response to these complaints, violations were issued in some instances, and several complaints were closed due to inability to gain access for inspection. The building has also received a recent complaint regarding unsanitary garbage/recycling storage conditions in April 2025, though inspections found no violations in this case. Prior to 2025, several important safety and regulatory issues emerged.

An October 2024 inspection identified multiple open violations, primarily concerning the building's failure to post required safety notices and information, including smoke detector requirements and gas leak procedures. Historical complaints and violations include a defective boiler complaint in January 2025 (no violations found), a gas hook-up complaint in October 2021 (no violations found), and several violations regarding energy efficiency score display requirements (active as of 2021). Notably, the building has maintained a consistent record of zero bedbug infestations over the past seven reporting periods from 2019 to 2024, with no infested or eradicated units reported in any of these filings.
