87-14 101st Avenue, Queens, NY 11416

The 4-unit, 3-story building at 87-14 101st Avenue in Ozone Park, owned by Leonardo Siragusa, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues since 2021, with the most concerning being a pattern of heating and sanitation problems. Most recently, in January 2023, there was a heat and hot water outage affecting the entire building, though these services were reportedly restored shortly thereafter. The building has also had multiple inspections for unsanitary conditions, including mold and pest issues, particularly notable in March 2022 when roaches were identified in apartment 2F.

A series of violations related to fire safety has emerged, including an open Class A violation from 2024 regarding the annual bedbug report filing and a 2023 Class C violation concerning excessive tread height on the second-story balcony at the fire escape. The property has a concerning record of documentation issues, with multiple active violations related to failure to file external low-pressure inspections between 2018 and 2024. A significant health and safety violation was issued in 2023 regarding household articles obstructing the third-story stairs.

The building underwent several inspections between 2021 and 2024 revealing various maintenance issues, though many were ultimately closed without penalties. Notably, there was a documented bedbug report for 2021-2022 showing no infestation during that period. Recent complaints (2023) have included emergency issues with flooring/stairs, the roof door/hatch, and general building sanitation, though most were promptly addressed or closed. While past complaints regarding illegal conversions and work without permits were investigated in 2020 and 2023, no violations were warranted at the time of inspection.
