139-06 34th Road, Queens, NY 11354

The 5-story, 91-unit residential building at 139-06 34th Road in Flushing, constructed in 1931, has experienced a series of maintenance and safety issues in recent years. Most notably, between May and June 2025, there were multiple complaints resulting in violations related to door/windown issues, electrical problems, and emergency conditions including plumbing and lighting failures. The building has documented ongoing rodent activity, with multiple inspections between 2024 and 2025 showing rat presence and the application of bait systems.

Housing Maintenance Code violations from late 2024 include issues with roach infestations in apartments C4 and D6, along with various maintenance concerns such as damaged electrical outlets, water leaks, and fire safety compliance matters in public areas. The property has a history of elevator service issues, with complaints about single-device service and no alternate service going back to 2018, and an active complaint as of June 2025. Several infrastructure maintenance violations remain open, including electrical outlet problems in apartment D6 and pest control issues.

The building has also experienced difficulties with timely response to inspection requests and housing code compliance, as evidenced by multiple HPD inspections where access was not granted. The most recent bedbug report (2023-2024) showed minimal activity, with only one infested unit reported. Environmental concerns were highlighted in 2018 with a $5,000 penalty related to construction site safety, though this was resolved. The property has maintained regular elevator inspection permits and work permits for various maintenance and improvement projects, though some historical violations related to energy efficiency reporting remain active.
