42-65 Kissena Boulevard, Queens, NY 11355
The six-story, 211-unit building at 42-65 Kissena Boulevard in Flushing, built in 1963 and currently owned by Nikolin Nika, has experienced a range of significant maintenance issues in recent months. Most pressing is an open complaint from June 2025 regarding indoor air quality and ventilation issues, and earlier complaints from May 2025 concerning elevator maintenance and unsanitary garbage/recycling storage conditions, both of which remain unresolved.
The building experienced multiple heat and hot water complaints in May 2025 that were addressed through HPD inspections. Three separate Housing Maintenance Code violations from late 2024 indicate persistent issues with fire door hardware and self-closing mechanisms, particularly affecting the first floor fire door to the laundry room. Historical records show some concerning patterns, including multiple violations in 2018 related to unauthorized additional dwelling units in apartment 109 and construction work without proper permits.
The building has maintained a record of compliance regarding bedbug management, with no reported infestations from 2019 through 2023, though there have been persistent rodent control measures noted in recent inspections. The most recent rodent inspection in March 2025 showed bait application, following earlier inspections in October 2024 that noted rat activity. The property has also faced challenges with elevator and boiler maintenance, though complaints from 2025 and 2024 were ultimately found to warrant no violations upon inspection.
