220-33 Northern Boulevard, Queens, NY 11361

The four-story, 1968 Bayside building at 220-33 Northern Boulevard, owned by Alan Mindel, has experienced several notable incidents and regulatory issues in recent years. Most concerning is the current open violation from April 2024 regarding the failure to file the annual bedbug report, which follows a pattern of similar violations from 2021 through 2023. The building has multiple active violations related to external low-pressure system inspections, with six such violations issued in June 2023 for the years 2018 through 2023.

A significant work-related incident occurred in 2021-2022 when unpermitted construction of a wooden structure was reported and resulted in an $1,280 penalty, though the stop work order was eventually rescinded. During late 2021 through early 2022, the building faced multiple Department of Health complaints regarding vaccine mandate non-compliance, specifically related to employee and customer proof of vaccination checks. There was also a pest-related housing maintenance complaint in 2022, though inspectors were unable to gain access to verify the conditions.

Despite these issues, the building's recent bedbug reports from 2021-2023 show no documented infestations, with all units reported as free of bedbugs during the filing periods. Previous elevator-related concerns were documented in 2019, but inspection found no violations at that time. The building's documented history shows a pattern of regulatory non-compliance primarily related to reporting requirements, rather than direct resident health and safety issues, though several of these violations remain open as of mid-2025.
