202-02 43rd Avenue, Queens, NY 11361

The 19-unit, 4-story apartment building at 202-02 43rd Avenue in Bayside, built in 1925, is currently managed by 202-02-10 Realty LLC and has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past few years. Most recently, in November 2024, there was a heat and hot water emergency affecting the entire building, which was resolved within three days.

During May 2020, the building faced multiple maintenance challenges including heat/hot water issues, plumbing problems, paint/plaster concerns, safety problems with smoke detectors, window pane issues, and both emergency and non-emergency water leak situations. Despite these complaints being recorded as emergencies, the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) was unable to gain access to inspect several of the reported conditions. The building has maintained consistent bedbug reporting compliance, with eight consecutive annual filings showing zero infested dwelling units, zero eradicated units, and zero re-infested units between 2019 and 2024, which suggests effective pest management practices.

Most recently, in April 2024, the building received an administrative violation regarding the filing of annual bedbug reports, though this appears to have been resolved as subsequent filings were submitted. While the property has experienced periodic maintenance issues, particularly in 2020, there have been no recent clusters of complaints, and the building has demonstrated proper bedbug reporting compliance in recent years. The most recent violations and complaints indicate that while there have been some recurring issues with heat and water systems, these have typically been addressed promptly when reported.
