40-55 College Point Blvd, Queens, NY 11354

This six-story, 11-unit residential building located at 40-55 College Point Boulevard in Flushing, owned by Feng Dong, was constructed in 1932 and has experienced several significant maintenance and regulatory issues over recent years. Between 2019 and 2020, the building faced multiple emergency complaints regarding inadequate heat, hot water, and cooking gas supply, primarily affecting apartment 4A, along with problems with the bell/intercom system.

The property has undergone several inspections and received various Housing Maintenance Code violations, particularly in 2019 when issues with heating, hot water, cooking gas, and safety systems were identified, though most were subsequently resolved. The building's recent history from 2021 to 2024 shows continued regulatory scrutiny, including multiple complaints of potential illegal uses between 2018 and 2021, such as unauthorized commercial activities and short-term rentals, though most investigations resulted in access denial by inspectors.

In early 2022, there were complaints about work being done without proper permits, and in 2023-2024, the building underwent inspections related to bedbug reporting requirements, with no infestations reported in the past five years. The most recent inspection in 2023 noted a bedbug reporting violation, though the building has maintained a consistent record of zero reported infestations since the reporting requirement was implemented. The property has also demonstrated compliance with bedbug reporting requirements from 2020 through the present, with all recent filings showing zero infested or re-infested units.
