77-41 164th Street, Queens, NY 11366

77-41 164th Street in Flushing is a 3-story, 5-unit residential building constructed in 1941 and currently owned by John Tagios. The property has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with documented complaints in 2018, 2019, 2021 (twice), 2022, and most recently in May 2025, all affecting the entire building.

While these complaints were generally resolved shortly thereafter, the recent 2025 complaint was particularly concerning as the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) was unable to gain access to investigate the reported lack of heat or hot water. Additionally, in September 2021, there was an emergency complaint regarding mold conditions, though no violations were issued following the inspection. The building's records also show a gas utility referral complaint in August 2022, which was closed in January 2023 when inspectors were unable to gain access.

Of note is the building's bedbug reporting history, which shows consistent compliance with zero infestations reported in the past five years (2021-2025). The only violation on record dates back to April 2021, concerning the requirement to file an annual bedbug report, though this appears to have been addressed since all subsequent reports show zero infested units. While the heat and hot water issues represent the most significant ongoing concern for the building, the absence of bedbug infestations and recent violation history suggests some areas of proper maintenance and compliance, though the repeated nature of the heating issues warrants attention.
