AI summary · updated June 2026

The 32-unit, 8-story building at 10-11 162nd Street in Whitestone, owned by Margaret Costello, was constructed in 1958 and has experienced several maintenance issues in recent years. The most concerning pattern has been related to heat and hot water systems, with three emergency complaints recorded in 2022 and 2025. A December 2022 inspection revealed multiple violations including inadequate heat supply in apartment 9B, locked heating system access in the basement, missing notices about heating system access, and defective self-closing doors in apartment 9B, though some of these violations were subsequently certified as corrected in January 2023. More recently, in May 2025, there was a complaint about pavement conditions outside the building, though this was determined not to violate housing laws following an HPD inspection.

The building has a history of elevator issues, with a significant violation recorded in March 2020 regarding the absence of mandatory door lock monitoring, though this was resolved with no penalties imposed. Regulatory compliance appears generally adequate, with the most recent bedbug reports from 2019-2024 showing zero infestations reported across all units, indicating effective pest management. While the building has faced recurring heating system challenges, particularly in late 2022 and early 2025, the management has typically responded to complaints and made efforts to address violations, as evidenced by the closure of multiple service requests through HPD.
