87-18 87th Street, Queens, NY 11421

The 6-unit, 3-story residential building at 87-18 87th Street in Woodhaven, owned by George Pastor, was constructed in 1931 under the New Law Tenement classification. The building has experienced several maintenance issues over the past several years, with the most significant recent concerns involving door and window conditions in July 2021.

During this period, multiple complaints were filed regarding window frames and doors, some classified as emergency situations, though inspectors were unable to gain access to verify the conditions. Earlier issues included pest infestation and wall problems reported in October 2018, which also could not be inspected due to access issues. The building has been subject to annual bedbug report requirements between 2018-2023, with violations recorded in 2021-2023 for failure to file these reports, though subsequent filings in 2024 show no infested units during the 2022-2023 reporting period.

Two specific building code violations were addressed in December 2018 regarding door security issues, including the need to self-close the entrance to apartment 2F and removal of an illegal sliding deadbolt at the first public hall bulkhead, both of which were certified as corrected in early 2019. A routine rodent inspection conducted in December 2015 resulted in a passing score. Despite the historical maintenance issues, recent bedbug reports and the absence of new complaints since 2021 suggest some improvement in building conditions, though the pattern of access issues during inspections warrants attention.
