192-02 39th Avenue, Queens, NY 11358

192-02 39th Avenue, also known as Beechwood Gardens, is a two-story, 96-unit garden/maisonette building located in Flushing, built in 1950 and currently owned by Joel Abreu. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues, particularly in early 2024, with multiple complaints and housing maintenance code complaints filed in February 2024 regarding flooring conditions (including emergency-level complaints), paint/plaster issues on walls, and unsanitary pest-related conditions.

One of the more concerning incidents occurred in December 2022 when an emergency heat/hot water complaint was filed for the entire building, though this was subsequently closed with no violations found. The property has a history of pest-related problems, with similar complaints recorded in March 2023 and earlier in the same year. Regulatory compliance issues were documented in March 2022 when an annual bedbug report filing violation was issued, though recent filings from 2022-2024 show zero bedbug infestation cases or eradication efforts.

There were also environmental control board violations in July 2022 related to the installation of two unauthorized AC units at the rear of the building, with one of the violations carrying an $800 penalty. While there have been multiple complaints and maintenance issues reported, it's noteworthy that in all recent HPD inspections related to the 2024 complaints, no violations were ultimately issued, suggesting that while there are ongoing maintenance concerns, they may not always result in regulatory violations. The building's recent bedbug reporting history from 2020 through 2024 consistently shows no affected units, indicating successful management of this particular issue since 2020.
