87-14 90th Street, Queens, NY 11421

The three-story residential building at 87-14 90th Street in Woodhaven, owned by Carlos Flores, has experienced significant maintenance and compliance issues in recent years. Most notably, there are three active violations related to unfiled annual bedbug reports as of 2024, and a Class C violation from February 2022 regarding defective self-closing doors at the building entrance.

The property has a documented history of heat and hot water issues, with multiple complaints in early 2022, though inspections were either inconclusive or found no violations. There are also concerns about building safety and compliance, with several violations related to missing safety notices requirements in the first-story public hall, including those for smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, and gas leak procedures. Of particular concern is an active Environmental Control Board violation from February 2022 regarding illegal occupancy, stemming from the creation of an unauthorized room with bathroom facilities on the second story, for which a $6,250 penalty was imposed.

This situation appears to be connected to a complaint filed in February 2022 regarding an illegal conversion, though access was not granted for inspection. Between January and February 2022, there were multiple emergency and non-emergency complaints regarding heat, hot water, and plumbing issues, many of which resulted in inspections where access to the apartments could not be obtained. While some of these complaints were closed without violations being issued, the pattern of service requests suggests ongoing maintenance challenges within the building.
