171-01 110th Avenue, Queens, NY 11433

The two-story garden/maisonette building at 171-01 110th Avenue in St. Albans, owned by Spiro Kyrou, was constructed in 1951 and contains 56 units. The property has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with emergency complaints registered in October 2024 and earlier instances in May 2023, suggesting an ongoing maintenance challenge.

Water-related problems have been significant, with multiple complaints including heavy water leakage in October 2023, slow leaks recorded in November 2023, and violations related to water leaks in both the lower apartment and Apartment 1 bathroom areas. The building has also faced interior maintenance concerns, with violations documented in 2023-2024 regarding defective plaster surfaces and paint issues in multiple apartments, particularly in bathrooms and ceilings. Recent health and safety concerns include two unresolved complaints from July 2023 regarding unlicensed beekeeping/wasp harboring.

The property has a history of various maintenance issues requiring attention, as evidenced by multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations. While some violations from early 2024 regarding water leaks and bathroom repairs in the lower apartment were certified as corrected, numerous violations remain open as of October 2024, particularly affecting Apartment 1 and the lower apartment's bathroom. The building's maintenance record shows a pattern of recurring issues with basic services and infrastructure, including ventilation systems, air quality (with a sewage odor complaint in March 2024), and various interior surface problems requiring repair and repainting.
