217-02 75th Avenue, Queens, NY 11364

The property at 217-02 75th Avenue in Bayside is a 296-unit, 2-story garden/maisonette building constructed in 1952 and currently owned by Carol Hochberg. The building has experienced several maintenance issues over recent years, with the most notable being a safety violation related to carbon monoxide detection in Apartment 1st Floor that remains open as of May 2024.

Other significant open violations include heating issues in Apartment 2 (where problems with radiator functionality, hot water, and various structural and maintenance concerns were recorded in 2022), and several plumbing and electrical issues across different units. The building has faced multiple pest control challenges, with two separate complaints regarding unsanitary conditions in 2023, though no violations were issued in these cases. Historical records show some infrastructure improvements were attempted, such as the installation of a wooden handicapped ramp in 2023, which resulted in a violation for work without a permit, though this was later resolved.

The property has a documented history of maintenance issues requiring attention to basic services such as heat, hot water, and plumbing systems, particularly evident in complaints from 2021-2022. While many of the building's recent complaints have been resolved without violations being issued, the persistence of certain open violations and the recurring nature of some service issues suggest ongoing maintenance challenges. The building's rodent inspections from 2015-2016 show generally favorable results, though one initial inspection in 2015 resulted in a failure for "Other Reasons."
