189-14 Crocheron Avenue, Queens, NY 11358

189-14 Crocheron Avenue is a 6-story, 109-unit residential building constructed in 1956, currently owned by Ilias Theodoropoulos. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues throughout 2025, with multiple complaints from both individual apartments and the entire building, though many have been resolved or closed when services were restored during inspections. There have also been several recent maintenance concerns, including water leaks, unsanitary conditions, door/window issues, and electrical wiring problems, with inspections sometimes unable to be completed due to access issues.

The building underwent a significant facade restoration project in 2024, which resulted in multiple violations related to work without proper permits and failure to safeguard public areas, though most of these have been resolved or dismissed. The building's elevator system has been a persistent concern, with multiple active complaints as of June 2025 regarding multiple devices on property. Recent inspections between 2025 and 2024 have shown improvements in some areas, including successful rodent inspections in 2025 and 2023, though a 2021 inspection failed for undisclosed reasons.

Notably, there was a bedbug infestation in 5 units reported in 2020-2021, with subsequent years showing no reported infestations. The building has maintained regular compliance with bedbug reporting requirements since then, with zero reported infestations in the past three filing periods. Recent electrical issues from early 2025 prompted multiple complaints, though inspections generally found no violations. The property has undergone several routine inspections and maintenance checks, with most violations being addressed promptly, though there are currently some active violations regarding elevator operation and structural issues from 2024 that remain unresolved as of now.
