42-18 165th Street, Queens, NY 11358

The 6-unit, 3-story New Law Tenement building at 42-18 165th Street in Flushing, owned by Adelchi Caira and constructed in 1926, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over recent years. Most notably, in January 2022, the building faced heating and hot water system problems that required emergency intervention from the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), resulting in violations for inadequate hot water supply to fixtures in apartment 1F and for locked access to the building's heating system boiler room door in the public hall on the first story.

These violations were ultimately certified as corrected by February 2022. The building's maintenance history shows an ongoing commitment to pest control, as evidenced by the annual bedbug reporting requirement. However, records from 2019 through 2024 show no infestations or pest-related issues reported, with all annual reports consistently indicating zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units.

This pattern suggests effective pest management practices have been maintained in recent years. While the heating system issues in 2022 were concerning, they appear to have been addressed promptly. No other significant complaints or violations are on record in the past three years, indicating improved overall building conditions since the 2022 heating incident.
