65-09 242nd Street, Queens, NY 11362
The three-story, 207-unit residential building at 65-09 242nd Street in Douglaston, owned by George Balourdos, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues between 2022 and 2025. Most notably, there have been multiple reports of water leaks and mold problems in 2024, with three separate water leak complaints (two classified as "slow leak") and two cases of unsanitary conditions (mold) between April and July 2024. Pests emerged as a concern in 2023 and 2025, with emergency complaints filed in June 2025, though previous pest-related HPD inspections in June 2023 were unable to gain access for verification.
The building's current violations include an open Class B violation from October 2024 regarding household items being stored in the first-story public hall, and a significant ongoing issue from May 2025 concerning a structurally compromised retaining wall that poses a safety risk to the public and adjacent properties. This violation requires immediate attention, with an order to retain New York State licensed engineers and contractors. Earlier violations from 2024 were addressed, including issues with roof hatch door locking mechanisms and the need for proper bedbug reporting filings.
While there were multiple bedbug violation notices issued in 2024, the building has maintained a consistent record of having zero infested units in its 2025 bedbug reporting, suggesting successful management of this particular issue. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of water-related issues, with six water leak complaints (including those from 2022 and 2024) recorded in the past three years, representing approximately 27% of all reported issues. Despite these recurring problems, most complaints were ultimately resolved without formal violations being issued, though this pattern of reoccurring issues may indicate ongoing maintenance challenges. The most recent building inspection in October 2024 noted several violations requiring attention, including the need to maintain proper notice postings and inspection certificates in common areas, though most of these were subsequently closed by November 2024.
