13-15 Bell Boulevard, Queens, NY 11360

The 3-unit, 3-story residential building at 13-15 Bell Boulevard in Bay Terrace, owned by Lesley Hong and constructed in 1970, has experienced several maintenance issues over the past five years. Most notably, in June 2020, multiple complaints were filed regarding electrical problems (including wiring and outlet/switch issues) and unsanitary conditions involving pests.

These complaints, categorized as both emergency and non-emergency, were ultimately closed in September 2020 due to housing preservation officials' inability to gain access for inspection. More recently, the building underwent some work in December 2022, with an electrical-related permit issued through the Department of Buildings.

However, one positive aspect to note is the building's clean record regarding bedbug infestations over the past five reporting periods (from 2018 to present), with consistently reported counts of zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested dwelling units. The most recent bedbug report for the period covering 2024-2025 (filed December 2024) shows no infestation history, maintaining the building's record of bedbug-free status. The absence of any new complaints or reported issues since 2020 could indicate either stabilization or lack of reported problems, though it's important to note that the previous pattern of uninspected complaints suggests that not all issues may have been fully addressed during that time.
