40-04 192nd Street, Queens, NY 11358

The two-story, six-unit residential building at 40-04 192nd Street in Flushing, owned by Noelle Gracin, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past three years. Most notably, there was a concerning pattern of heat and hot water complaints in late 2022, with multiple complaints filed in October and November of that year, though some were resolved or withdrawn when inspectors could not gain access to the units.

In April 2023, there was a Department of Health complaint regarding indoor air quality related to chemical vapors. The building underwent inspections in late 2022 and early 2023 that revealed various maintenance issues, particularly affecting apartment 6, including problems with door security features, self-closing doors, and safety systems like smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. Other violations included defective bathroom tiles and ceiling light fixtures in apartment 6, as well as a broken concrete tread at the front entrance.

The building's management has generally addressed violations promptly, as evidenced by the closure of several issues, though some remain as of the last inspection records. The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with no reported cases over the past four years, including the most recent filings in 2025, 2024, and 2023, where all indicated zero infested or re-infested units. The building's age (built in 1951) and history of complaints suggest ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly around heating systems and security features, though recent bedbug reports indicate effective pest management practices.
