10-24 166th Street, Queens, NY 11357

The 32-unit, 8-story residential building at 10-24 166th Street in Whitestone, owned by Stanley Greenberg, has experienced several maintenance and safety issues over the past five years, particularly concerning its elevator systems. From 2020 to 2021, there were two documented incidents involving the elevator's single device with no alternate service, resulting in Oath Violations being served. The building's elevator system continued to present concerns, with an Environmental Control Board violation in April 2020 noting the absence of door lock monitoring systems and requiring various maintenance updates, including brake maintenance and cleaning of hoist ropes.

This violation was eventually resolved, along with a subsequent May 2021 elevator maintenance violation regarding expired tags and incomplete maintenance logs. The building has also faced some safety inspections, including an unsafe report filed in February 2024, though this violation was dismissed in February 2025. Earlier maintenance issues were documented in complaint records from 2019-2021, including an investigation of boiler problems in November 2019, which was ultimately determined to have no warranted violations.

Notably, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with all annual reports from 2019 through 2024 showing zero infested or eradicated units. While there have been multiple complaints filed over the years, most were either resolved without violation or did not warrant any enforcement action. The most recent significant inspection in 2024 resulted in a dismissed violation, suggesting improved compliance with safety requirements, though the history of elevator-related issues indicates this system has required ongoing attention.
