85-97 Parsons Boulevard, Queens, NY 11432

The three-story building at 85-97 Parsons Boulevard in Jamaica Hills, owned by Fai Lee, has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water service, most recently documented in November and December 2023. These heating system problems are particularly concerning given their recent nature and the building's history of maintenance challenges.

In 2020, there was an apparent pest infestation issue, with multiple complaints filed between July and September of that year, though some inspections were unable to gain access to verify conditions. The building has also faced several regulatory compliance challenges, including open violations from 2018 requiring proper maintenance of window sashes and door self-closing mechanisms in Apartment 101, as well as multiple active violations relating to external low-pressure inspection filings from 2023.

The property has maintained a relatively good record in terms of bedbug management, with the most recent reporting period (2025) showing no active infestations, though significant numbers of units were treated and eradicated in previous years (11 units in both 2023-2024 and 2024-2025 periods). A significant portion of the building's history involves access issues during inspections, particularly regarding pest infestations and various building maintenance complaints. The Department of Buildings records also show multiple permits issued in 2018-2020 for various maintenance and repair work, including exterior and plumbing work, suggesting ongoing efforts to address the building's maintenance needs, though the recent heating system failures indicate that some systems may require further attention.
