35-19 Leavitt Street, Queens, NY 11354

The 44-unit, 6-story condominium building at 35-19 Leavitt Street in Flushing, owned by Leavitt Tower Condo & Management Inc., was constructed in 2014 and has experienced several notable maintenance issues over the past few years. Most recently, in March and April 2023, there were two separate complaints about heat and hot water outages, with the latter incident requiring HPD intervention before the services were reportedly restored. The building has also experienced water-related issues, with a significant leak reported in July 2022, though no violations were issued following the HPD inspection.

Violation notices from 2023 indicate building security concerns, including the illegal installation of a double cylinder key-operated lock on the building entrance door and the failure to properly display the building's registration number. The property has maintained an active record of compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, showing zero infestation cases in the most recent five reporting periods (2020-2024). Historical data shows inspections for rodent issues in 2011 resulted in failures for "other reasons," though the specific concerns were not detailed in the records.

While there were initial complaints about electrical wiring and illegal conversion claims in 2019-2021, these were investigated and no violations were found. The building's management has been issued multiple permits between 2018 and 2019 for various work, most notably including elevator-related permits in late 2019. Recent violations regarding Energy Efficiency Report (EER) submissions for 2021 and 2022 were ultimately dismissed in early 2024, as the building was still within its first ten years of operation, which provided an exception to this requirement.
