The 8-story, 20-unit residential building at 135-37 37th Avenue in Flushing, owned by Tai Jin, has experienced several notable events since 2019, with particular attention to safety systems. Most recently, in April 2024, violations were issued for apartment 5B regarding defective smoke detectors and missing carbon monoxide detectors, following earlier issues of the same nature in December 2022 for apartment 5A.

Between 2022-2023, there were two heat/hot water complaints (one with violations) within a short period, and multiple violations were documented in 2023 concerning self-closing doors in public areas. The building has maintained a clean bedbug record over the past eight reporting periods from 2019 to 2024, with no documented infestations or eradications. Previous violations include an elevator service issue in 2019 that resulted in an Oath Violation, and multiple Department of Buildings (DOB) violations related to energy efficiency reporting between 2019-2021.

The most recent concerning safety was a January 2023 violation requiring the posting of gas leak procedures in the public hall. The building has shown attention to compliance, with timely closure of many violations, including those related to window guards, though some remain open as of the latest inspections. The property has required various repairs and maintenance, as evidenced by multiple Department of Buildings complaints and violations over the years, primarily focusing on safety systems and building infrastructure compliance.
