81-15 268th Street, Queens, NY 11040

The two-story garden apartment building at 81-15 268th Street in Floral Park, owned by Margaret Healy, has 152 units and was constructed in 1950. The building has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water systems, with multiple complaints filed between 2021 and 2024, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building.

Notable incidents include a significant heating system failure in January 2024 that required HPD intervention, and several power outages in 2022 and 2023 that prompted emergency responses, though inspections found no violations. The building's maintenance records show some pest control history, with pest violations noted in 2018 for Apartment 1 related to roaches and mice, though these were certified as corrected shortly thereafter. Recent bedbug reports from 2019 through 2024 have shown no infestations, with the most recent filings indicating zero affected units.

The property faced administrative scrutiny in 2023, receiving multiple violations for failure to file external low-pressure inspection documents for 2019 through 2021, though all these violations were subsequently dismissed. An annual bedbug report filing from 2024 shows consistent monitoring with no active infestations, and a rodent inspection from February 2020 passed without issues. The building's systems and maintenance history suggest ongoing challenges with basic utilities, particularly heating, though the frequency of heating system complaints has decreased somewhat in recent years, with only one significant heating complaint in 2024 compared to multiple similar complaints in 2022.
