101-52 132nd Street, Queens, NY 11419

The three-story two-family house at 101-52 132nd Street in Richmond Hill, owned by Mahadeo Motana, has exhibited several concerning patterns over recent years. Most notably, in 2022, there was an investigation into an alleged illegal conversion of the property, though the inspector was unable to gain access during the final two attempts.

The property has a history of zoning and property maintenance issues dating back to 2018, when three significant violations were documented: unauthorized use of the front yard for parking non-registered vehicles (including a commercial box truck), an illegally extended curb cut beyond the permitted width, and inadequate front yard planting areas that were fully paved with cement (failing to meet zoning drainage requirements). While these violations were eventually resolved, they indicate past non-compliance with local regulations.

The building's rodent inspections from 2011-2012 show a mixed record, with initial inspections failing for unspecified reasons, though subsequent compliance inspections passed. These inspection records suggest the property has faced ongoing maintenance and regulatory compliance challenges. The illegal conversion complaint in 2022 and multiple violations in 2018, though now resolved, suggest a pattern of regulatory non-compliance that may impact resident experience.
