215-34 Northern Boulevard, Queens, NY 11361

The two-story building at 215-34 Northern Boulevard in Bayside, owned by Ok Paek and constructed in 1965, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, in late November 2023, there were emergency complaints about lack of heat and hot water affecting the entire building, though these were reportedly resolved within three days. The property has a concerning pattern of garbage/recycling storage issues, with similar complaints filed in November 2023 and August 2022, though no violations were found upon inspection.

Compliance with housing regulations has been actively monitored, with multiple violations related to bedbug reporting requirements documented between 2021 and 2024, though these were later closed or dismissed. In 2023, the building received a notable violation for failure to file the annual bedbug report, and in April 2024, there was a bedbug-related violation issued that was subsequently dismissed. The building's infrastructure has shown some challenges, particularly regarding its elevator system, with multiple complaints in 2021 about single and multiple devices, though inspections found no violations.

The property has faced regulatory scrutiny regarding energy management, receiving violations in 2022 for failure to file benchmarking reports, and in 2021 for not displaying energy efficiency scores, all of which were eventually dismissed. While the most recent bedbug reports from 2024 and 2025 show zero infested units, recording historical data indicates one infested unit in 2017-2018. The building's rodent inspections in 2016 revealed rat activity initially, but a subsequent compliance inspection passed with no issues noted.
