139-08 85th Drive, Queens, NY 11435

The property at 139-08 85th Drive in Briarwood is a two-family residence built in 1945, currently owned by Anna Wong. The most notable and concerning issues in recent history occurred in August 2021, when multiple complaints were filed regarding pest infestations, with reports of unsanitary conditions and mouse sightings affecting the building.

The Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) responded to two separate pest-related incidents during August 2021, issuing violations in one case and determining no violations in another. The Department of Health and Mental Hygiene also attempted to inspect the property for rodent issues but was unable to gain access. Additionally, there are two recorded complaints regarding potential illegal conversions at the address, both associated with the nearby address of 114-35 (the actual street number appears to have been listed incorrectly in the complaints).

These complaints were filed on May 14, 2021, and August 16, 2021, both resulting in inspectors being unable to gain access on their second final attempts, with one case remaining unresolved as of September 2022. While the illegal conversion complaints were associated with a different building number, they are worth noting as part of the property's complaint history. The building's documented issues suggest concerns about maintenance and resident comfort during the summer of 2021, though there have been no reported complaints or violations in the subsequent years up to the current date of July 2025.
