144-16 35th Avenue, Queens, NY 11354
This 6-story, 42-unit residential building in Flushing, dating back to 1938, is currently experiencing significant maintenance and safety issues under the ownership of Suzan Chou. The building has an ongoing pattern of pest control violations, with multiple complaints between 2024-2025 regarding unsanitary conditions and pest infestations, including four separate pest-related complaints in 2025 alone.
More concerning are the recent Housing Maintenance Code violations issued in March 2024, which document multiple fire safety issues including a defective smoke detector, carbon monoxide detector problems, and fire escape deficiencies in apartment 6G, along with various required safety notices that are not being properly maintained or displayed. The building has also failed to comply with multiple energy efficiency requirements, with active violations related to benchmarking report filings and energy score displays throughout 2023-2024. Previous inspection records from 2021 reveal serious concerns regarding illegal apartment conversions, with violations indicating unauthorized conversion of a family apartment into multiple SRO units, though some violation statuses are now listed as "resolved" with associated penalties.
The elevator system has been a recurring issue, with multiple complaints recorded between 2020-2021 regarding single device service and safety concerns, including tampering with door zone restrictors. While some inspection attempts have resulted in no violations being found, there have been numerous instances where inspectors were unable to gain access to complete their investigations. The building also has outstanding environmental control board violations from 2021, totaling over $10,000 in penalties related to occupancy and safety compliance issues, though some records indicate these violations may have been resolved or are currently inactive.
