87-50 204th Street, Queens, NY 11423
The 6-story, 197-unit building at 87-50 204th Street in Holliswood, owned by Christopher Alker and constructed in 1954, has experienced persistent ventilation and air quality issues throughout 2025. Between January and May 2025, there were multiple complaints regarding chemical odors, ventilation problems, and construction dust, with several instances requiring DOHMH intervention and at least two HPD inspection attempts where access was denied. The building currently has several open Housing Maintenance Code violations in Apartment B24 from 2024, including issues with fire egress, visible mold, ventilation system problems, and various maintenance deficiencies affecting the kitchen and bathroom.
Notably, there were also two ECB violations imposed in early 2021 regarding delayed facade repairs, resulting in $5,000 in penalties, though these have since been resolved. The building has documented a consistent history of ventilation system concerns, with multiple complaints filed through both 311 and the Department of Buildings over the past few years. Emergency maintenance issues have included door and window problems, plumbing concerns, and various general maintenance needs.
While there was one instance of confirmed bedbug infestation in Apartment B24 during the 2020-2021 reporting period, subsequent filings through 2025 show no further infestations. The property has maintained regular compliance with bedbug inspection requirements since 2021, with all recent filings indicating no affected units. The building's management has generally responded to maintenance issues, with many complaints being resolved or closed, though some open violations suggest ongoing maintenance challenges.
