143-10 Ash Avenue, Queens, NY 11355

The two-family house at 143-10 Ash Avenue in Flushing, owned by William Chuang, has experienced recurring issues over the past several years, particularly regarding unauthorized modifications to the property. The most recent incidents include a June 2023 complaint about illegal after-hours work, which was investigated but found to have no violations at that time.

There is a notable pattern of illegal conversion complaints, with four reported cases between 2018 and 2021. While two of these inspections in 2018 resulted in inspectors being unable to gain access, a 2021 complaint led to an OATH violation being served. The property has two active Environmental Control Board violations from August 2021, with penalties totaling $2,500 for failing to comply with previous commissioner's orders to file certificates of correction related to violations from October 2016 (numbers 3520328 and 3520382).

These violations, which appear to remain unresolved as of the latest available data, reflect ongoing compliance issues. On a more positive note, recent bedbug reporting from March 2024 shows no current or past infestations in the building, with the reporting period (November 2022 - October 2023) recording zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units. The building, constructed in 1925, has existed for nearly a century and contains four units across two stories, consistent with its building class designation.
