101-46 106th Street, Queens, NY 11416

101-46 106th Street is a 2-family house located in Ozone Park, built in 1935 and currently owned by Sarowattie Inderjit. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues throughout 2025, with multiple complaints related to unsanitary conditions, particularly mold, as well as water-related problems including leaks and dampness. Between March and June 2025, there were at least eight separate incidents involving ceiling damage requiring paint/plaster work, and three complaints specifically about steam pipe/riser plumbing issues, most of which were categorized as emergencies.

Despite multiple inspection attempts by HPD, several complaints went unresolved due to inability to complete inspections, though some violations were confirmed. The building has a significant history of illegal conversion complaints, with multiple active and closed cases between 2018 and 2025. Most recently, there are currently two active complaints (as of June 2025) regarding illegal conversion, with previous complaints from 2024-2025 showing a pattern of inspectors being unable to gain access during inspection attempts.

Earlier complaints from 2023, 2020, and 2019 also followed this pattern, indicating potential challenges in accessing the property for required inspections. While some violations have been addressed, including a request for corrective action issued in 2024, the recurring nature of these complaints suggests ongoing concerns about unauthorized modifications to the property's structure or use. The building's documented issues span several categories, including water leaks, mold, and ceiling damage, indicating potential systemic maintenance challenges. The pattern of inspection failures and both emergency and non-emergency complaints suggests there may be persistent maintenance issues requiring attention, though it's important to note that not all complaints resulted in confirmed violations.
