161-05 Bayside Lane, Queens, NY 11358

The two-family house at 161-05 Bayside Lane in Flushing, built in 1931 and owned by De Guang Yang, has experienced several maintenance and safety issues in recent years, with the most significant cluster of complaints occurring in 2025. During this year, there were multiple reports of unsanitary conditions related to garbage and recycling storage, along with safety concerns regarding a broken or missing window guard. The building has also faced electrical wiring issues in April 2025, though these were reportedly addressed promptly.

Additionally, there was a pattern of smoking-related complaints in late 2024 through mid-2025, suggesting possible violations of smoke-free area regulations. Earlier issues from 2024 included a pest-related complaint that could not be fully investigated by HPD. Going back to 2020, similar pest problems were reported, as well as plumbing concerns that inspectors were unable to access during their visit.

The building's most recent documented issues primarily revolve around safety and sanitation, though most inspections conducted by HPD and DOHMH in response to these complaints found that conditions did not violate housing laws. While some problems appear to have been resolved promptly, such as the electrical wiring issue, there is a notable pattern of recurring unsanitary conditions related to waste storage and pest management that has persisted over multiple years. The property has maintained a two-family configuration, consistent with its original building class designation, and continues to operate under the ownership of De Guang Yang as of the most recent records.
