199-02 21st Avenue, Queens, NY 11360

The property at 199-02 21st Avenue in Bay Terrace is a two-story, 212-unit garden/maisonette building constructed in 1951, currently owned by James Marsanico.

The building's recent history shows recurring issues with standing water on the sidewalks adjacent to the property, with the most recent complaint filed in May 2025 still marked as in progress, following a similar incident just two days prior that was promptly investigated by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) with no violations found. This ongoing issue presents potential safety concerns for residents and visitors alike.

While the building has experienced rodent-related incidents in the past, including a reported sighting in August 2022, previous inspections in 2019, 2013, and 2022 all resulted in passing grades with no violations noted by health inspectors. The relatively clean record of rodent inspections, with multiple successful passes over the past decade, suggests that while rodent sightings have occurred, the building has generally maintained compliance with health regulations regarding pest control.
