133-50 37th Avenue, Queens, NY 11354

The 4-story, 2-family house at 133-50 37th Avenue in Flushing, owned by Lily Chuang and built in 2004, has experienced several concerning incidents in recent years. Most notably, there have been two separate incidents of building shaking/vibration reported in 2023 (April and July), with violations served in both cases.

The building has active violations related to fire safety, including a July 2023 violation regarding a falling EFS panel from an apartment balcony, and an April 2023 violation noting damage to the awning and decorative wooden structure caused by a fire at a neighboring building (133-42 37th Avenue). In 2021-2022, the property was the subject of multiple complaints and violations related to unauthorized uses, including illegal occupancy as an adult physical culture establishment/massage parlor with eight massage tables across five rooms, and operating an unlicensed physical treatment establishment - all of which were resolved with penalties totaling $3,500.

The building has also faced structural concerns, with documented shaking in 2022 and 2023, and three separate health-related complaints in 2021-2024 including a December 2021 inspection by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene regarding pests or sanitation issues (rodents/insects/garbage). While an initial rodent inspection in 2011 passed, the more recent health complaint suggests potential ongoing maintenance issues. The property's regulatory history shows a pattern of violations and complaints primarily centered around unauthorized uses and occupancy issues, with the most recent concerns focusing on building safety and structural stability.
