104-21 107th Street, Queens, NY 11417

This two-family home at 104-21 107th Street in Ozone Park, owned by Vasile Micle, has experienced persistent heat and hot water issues from late 2023 through 2024, with multiple emergency complaints filed through the Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) department. The building experienced at least seven heat-related complaints between April 2023 and October 2024, with the most recent occurring in October 2024.

While some complaints were resolved with heat restoration confirmed by occupants, others resulted in HPD's inability to gain access for inspection. The property has also faced regulatory scrutiny regarding potential illegal conversions, with five complaints filed between 2019 and 2025, though inspections often resulted in inability to gain access. Two paint/plaster complaints, one in July 2023 and another in April 2022, suggest ongoing maintenance issues with building interiors.

Additionally, there were two food establishment-related complaints in 2019-2020, though these were eventually administratively closed. The building's recent history raises concerns about basic service reliability, particularly regarding heating systems, which has been a recurring issue despite multiple inspections and complaints. The persistent inability of inspectors to gain access during several inspections, particularly relating to illegal conversion complaints, is notable and may indicate access challenges within the building.
