139-50 35th Avenue, Queens, NY 11354
The 126-unit, 6-story building at 139-50 35th Avenue in Flushing, owned by John Lugo and constructed in 1959, has experienced several maintenance and safety challenges in recent years. Most notably, there are active environmental control board violations from 2024 regarding unsafe façade conditions and maintenance issues, with penalties totaling over $120,000. There is also an ongoing investigation as of June 2025 concerning construction lead dust in common areas.
The building has a documented history of pest-related issues, with recent violations for cockroach infestation in public areas (2023) and previous rodent sightings, though inspections by health departments typically found no violations. Significant maintenance problems were reported in 2021, including water leaks, mold, and various paint/plaster issues in Apartment 3H, along with elevator maintenance concerns in late 2024. The property has shown some improvement in recent years, with no bedbug infestations reported since 2021 and passing rodent inspections in 2023 and 2024.
However, there are multiple active violations related to façade maintenance, including defective mortar joints and spalled bricks, with associated penalties. The building has also faced historical challenges with heating systems, with emergency complaints regarding heat/hot water service in early 2021. While the building has generally passed inspections by health and housing authorities, the pattern of recurring violations suggests ongoing maintenance and safety monitoring needs. The most recent bedbug reports (2023-2024) indicate no current infestations, though previous records from 2019-2020 show two units had issues that were subsequently resolved.
