57-48 224th Street, Queens, NY 11364

The two-family house at 57-48 224th Street in Bayside, owned by Chet Lee, has experienced recurring pest-related issues over the past few years, with particular concern regarding rodent activity.

Three separate rodent-related complaints were filed between 2018 and 2019, with the most recent incidents in September 2019 resulting in both DOHMH and HPD investigations. While there were some successful inspections - such as the November 2019 compliance inspection which passed - there was also a pattern of inspections resulting in initial failures, notably in September 2019.

The building, constructed in 1965, has remained relatively stable structurally as a two-story building, though there has been one notable recent event in late 2023 involving a building permit complaint through the Department of Buildings, where an inspector was unable to gain access on the second final attempt during an inspection scheduled for November 20, 2023. This permit-related issue appears to be the most recent building concern on record, though it is worth noting that neither this specific complaint nor the pest-related issues directly indicate structural or safety concerns beyond the noted access issue.
