87-15 Little Neck Parkway, Queens, NY 11001

87-15 Little Neck Parkway, a 2-story, 38-unit garden apartment building constructed in 1949, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues over recent years. The most notable concerns have been related to heating and hot water systems, with multiple emergency complaints recorded in 2021-2022 and a power outage in 2023. Between February 2021 and October 2022, there were at least five documented instances of heat and hot water problems affecting either the entire building or individual apartments.

During 2022, there were also complaints about mold (February) and rodent issues (December), though inspections generally found no violations. The building currently has open violations from 2022 and 2023 related to failure to submit required annual bedbug reports, and a February 2022 violation regarding peeling paint in various locations in Apartment A. Earlier electrical issues in February 2021, including problems with wiring and outlets, were resolved according to HPD records.

The most recent inspection history shows some improvements in rodent management, with no violations noted since 2026, following periods of both compliance and failure to comply with inspection requirements between 2015-2016. While the building has addressed some past concerns - such as some electrical and plumbing issues in 2021 and rodent problems in 2016 - the recurring nature of heating and hot water failures suggests an ongoing infrastructure challenge. The persistence of bedbug reporting violations through 2024 indicates continued compliance issues with required pest management protocols. However, the building has successfully passed multiple inspections by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene and other agencies when violations were not specifically identified, suggesting some level of oversight by various regulatory bodies.
