146-12 34th Avenue, Queens, NY 11354

The three-story, two-family house at 146-12 34th Avenue in Flushing, owned by Qiaoming Huang and built in 1901, has experienced several concerning issues over the past two years that merit attention. Most recently, in April 2024, the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene documented a rat sighting on the property, noting violations that would require follow-up inspections.

In October 2023, the building faced multiple emergency situations, including heavy water flow issues, mold problems, and pest infestations. While the Department of Housing Preservation and Development investigated these matters and ultimately issued no violations, three separate complaints were filed through the Housing Maintenance Code system during the same period, with varying classifications of emergency and non-emergency status.

Looking slightly further back, in May 2022, two complaints were filed with the Department of Buildings regarding the property - one concerning an alleged illegal conversion and another related to a lack of proper permits. Although inspection in June 2022 found no violations regarding the illegal conversion claim, by September 2022, corrective action was required for the permit-related issue, which was subsequently resolved. While some of these historical concerns have been addressed, the recent pattern of pest-related issues and structural problems suggests ongoing maintenance challenges.
