132-15 41st Avenue, Queens, NY 11355

The six-story, 23-unit residential building at 132-15 41st Avenue in Flushing, owned by Edison Liu and completed in 2014, has experienced several notable incidents over the past years. Most recently, in April 2025, there was a Department of Health investigation regarding chemical vapors or odors, though the specific source and resolution were not detailed.

In 2024, multiple safety-related violations were documented and subsequently addressed, including issues with fire escape doors on the third story and various security concerns at ground level involving illegal double cylinder locks and defective self-closing doors. The building has faced several sanitary challenges, particularly in 2019, with violations related to garbage/recycling storage and pigeon odor conditions, though these were subsequently resolved. The property has a history of unauthorized modifications, with the Department of Buildings issuing a violation in 2019 for unpermitted work in apartment 6A, where additional bedrooms were allegedly constructed using steel frames and corrugated metal.

Three attempt inspections for illegal conversion complaints occurred in 2018-2019, though access was denied on each occasion. More recent records indicate improved conditions regarding pests, with no bedbug infestations reported in the annual filings between 2024-2025, and a rodent compliance inspection passed in 2017. The building underwent several code compliance inspections in 2024, resulting in multiple safety-related violations that were addressed by May 2024, including the proper repair of defective door latches and the posting of required safety notices in both English and Spanish.
