33-22 Union Street, Queens, NY 11354

33-22 Union Street is a three-story, three-unit residential building located in Flushing, constructed in 1979 and currently owned by Ramnauth Naipaul. The building has undergone a conversion to Class A housing status and has experienced several noteworthy maintenance issues over recent years.

Most significantly, there have been recurring bedbug reporting violations, with the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) issuing Notices of Violation in 2021, 2022, and 2023 regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports. However, recent bedbug report filings from 2021 to 2025 show no documented infestations in any units during the specified reporting periods, indicating successful compliance with eradication efforts. The property has faced ongoing concerns with rodent activity, with inspection results showing rat presence in both January and March 2023, and an initial inspection in November 2021 also reporting rat activity.

In contrast, the building passed rodent inspections in February 2022 and April 2011, suggesting intermittent rodent control challenges. While the recent bedbug reporting compliance indicates improved attention to pest management, the recurring rodent activity suggests this remains an area requiring ongoing monitoring. The building's overall maintenance record demonstrates a pattern of prompt response to regulatory requirements, though there have been some lapses in timely compliance that resulted in official violations, particularly in relation to bedbug reporting obligations.
