102-33 91st Avenue, Queens, NY 11418

102-33 91st Avenue is a four-story, 23-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Jerry Papafloratos. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues throughout 2024 and into 2025, with ten documented complaints about these system failures between November 2024 and March 2025, including emergency responses from HPD. While heat and hot water were reportedly restored in several instances, the frequency of these outages suggests an ongoing maintenance challenge.

The building has also faced some other maintenance concerns, including a pest-related complaint in March 2025 (which HPD determined did not violate housing laws) and multiple housing maintenance code violations identified during an October 2024 inspection. These violations, which have since been addressed, included issues with fire retardant materials, paint requirements, and heating system notices. The property owner has demonstrated responsiveness to some maintenance issues, as evidenced by the closing of various violations between late 2024 and early 2025.

Notably, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations since 2018, with zero reported cases in the past seven reporting periods, and passed rodent inspections in 2015. Two complaints regarding illegal conversions were filed in 2024, though one was closed due to inability to gain access for inspection. The building appears to have experienced most of its significant issues within the past year, particularly concerning heating system reliability, though many of these problems are typical of older buildings and have been documented through proper channels with appropriate responses from city agencies.
