20-15 Parsons Boulevard, Queens, NY 11357

20-15 Parsons Boulevard is a 2-story, 4-unit residential building constructed in 1950, currently owned by Susan Chen. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past several years, with the most recent being a mold-related complaint in March 2025 that HPD was unable to fully investigate. There have been three documented water supply-related plumbing issues (2019, 2023, and 2025) that required HPD intervention, though two were resolved promptly. The building underwent a particularly significant period of maintenance violations in April 2023, with multiple class A violations including missing safety notices for smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors, as well as a defective self-closing door.

All of these violations were subsequently closed after the required corrections were made. The building has demonstrated good pest management practices in recent years, with no reported bedbug infestations in the most recent three annual filings (2022-2024). Earlier records show successful eradication of bedbugs in 2020-2021 and 2019-2020, indicating effective response to previous infestations. Rodent activity was documented in 2018, with bait applied in response to inspections showing rat activity, though the situation appeared to improve with a "Passed" result in May 2018.

The property has maintained compliance with annual bedbug reporting requirements since 2022, with the most recent report showing zero infested units. The building's recent history suggests ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly regarding plumbing systems and building safety features. However, management has consistently addressed violations when cited, as evidenced by prompt resolution of most issues and successful completion of required corrections. The property's overall condition indicates active maintenance oversight, though the frequency of plumbing-related service requests and recent mold complaint suggest some persistent infrastructure concerns.
