11-01 162nd Street, Queens, NY 11357

This 8-story, 32-unit residential building located at 11-01 162nd Street in Whitestone, built in 1958 and currently owned by Stanley Greenberg, has experienced several significant maintenance and compliance issues in recent years. Most notably, in late 2024, there were multiple complaints and violations involving Apartment 6A, including emergency mold issues, plumbing problems, and defects in various fixtures and surfaces.

The apartment exhibited multiple infrastructure concerns, including water leakage affecting ceilings and walls in both the kitchen and bathroom, defective cabinetry, and ventilation system problems. The building has a history of elevator-related violations, with two incidents in 2020 regarding the lack of door lock monitoring, which were eventually resolved with penalties.

Recent maintenance patterns suggest ongoing challenges with building upkeep, as evidenced by the November 2024 violations requiring attention to building code compliance, including safety-related requirements such as proper notice postings and maintenance of inspection certificate displays. Three complaints regarding excessive debris were reported in 2025, alongside inspections for various compliance matters. While there have been no reported bedbug infestations in recent years, with all such filings showing zero affected units from 2019 to the present, the building's recent history indicates persistent maintenance and compliance challenges that have required ongoing attention from building management and regulatory authorities.
