89-51 237th Street, Queens, NY 11426
At 89-51 237th Street in Bellerose, a three-unit residential building constructed in 1965 and currently owned by Xiao Chen, there are significant ongoing housing maintenance code violations related to bedbug reporting requirements. From 2021 through 2024, the building has consistently received violations for failing to file the required annual bedbug reports in accordance with HPD rules, with the most recent violation occurring in April 2024. These violations, while classified as "Class A," represent administrative noncompliance rather than direct health or safety concerns.
The building experienced noteworthy incidents in June 2022, including two environmental violations related to electrical work performed without proper permits and gas supply issues. Specifically, unauthorized electrical work was conducted throughout the three-story building, involving new wiring and junction boxes for light fixtures, which incurred a penalty of $1,600. More seriously, there was a hazardous situation involving an uninspected and uncertified main gas valve that was not properly locked, with associated penalties of $5,000.
During this same period, there were multiple tenant safety inspections conducted in June and July 2022, with one stop work order being fully rescinded and no violations found in others. The most recent rodent inspection of record, conducted in December 2014, resulted in a passing grade. While the bedbug reporting violations represent an ongoing regulatory noncompliance issue, the more serious safety violations from 2022 appear to have been resolved, with no new violations recorded in this period.
