42-45 Main Street, Queens, NY 11355
The 6-story residential building at 42-45 Main Street in Flushing, owned by Peter Levenson, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, with particular concern regarding heat, water, and sanitary conditions. In early 2025, there were multiple heat and hot water complaints, with some resulting in violations and requiring multiple HPD inspections. The building has shown recurring water-related problems, with violations documented in apartments 103, 322, and 608 between 2020-2024, including leaks, mold, and maintenance issues with ceilings and walls.
The elevator system has been a persistent concern, with multiple complaints about single-device service and alternate service availability between 2024-2025, and an active complaint as of May 2025. The property has undergone various inspections and faced multiple violations in recent years. In 2024, apartments 103 and 322 received violation notices for water leaks and mold issues, while apartment 608 was cited for both water leak concerns and pest infestation (roaches).
The building's management has also been required to address emergency violations related to building systems and tenant safety, including issues with smoke detectors and carbon monoxide devices in 2024. Structural concerns were documented in 2020 regarding the building's façade and parapet, resulting in multiple violations and penalties related to construction and safety requirements. While there have been occasional pest issues noted through the bedbug reporting system (with the most recent report showing no infested units for 2023-2024), the building passed a rodent inspection in January 2023 following a failed inspection in late 2022. The property has maintained certain compliance requirements, with violations regarding energy-related documentation being resolved or dismissed between 2020-2023.
