34-61 Leavitt Street, Queens, NY 11354

The three-unit residential building at 34-61 Leavitt Street in Flushing, owned by Yiji Lin and constructed in 1999, has experienced several notable issues over recent years. The building underwent a significant inspection in 2021 that revealed multiple violations in Apartment 3RDFL, including unauthorized alterations creating additional rooms, installation of an acoustical drop ceiling, and safety concerns such as defective smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. These violations were subsequently addressed and closed.

The property has maintained consistent bedbug reporting compliance from 2021 through 2025, with no reported infestations or eradications during any of the annual filing periods, suggesting effective pest management practices. Of particular note is the building's ongoing requirement to submit annual bedbug reports, which have been filed regularly and show no infestation history. The building's safety issues have generally been addressed promptly, though there were initial concerns about self-closing doors at the building entrance (identified as a violation in December 2021).

A 2021 complaint regarding illegal conversion was filed and investigated in 2022, though access was denied during the inspection. More recent inspections in 2023 and 2024 have focused primarily on administrative compliance matters, including the filing of annual bedbug reports. The most recent building data indicates no active violations or safety concerns as of April 2024, with all previously identified issues having been closed out through proper remediation or compliance measures. While the building's history shows a pattern of maintenance issues requiring attention, particularly in 2021, the current status suggests improved compliance with housing codes and regulations.
