202-10 109th Avenue, Queens, NY 11412

The two-family house at 202-10 109th Avenue in St. Albans, built in 1948 and currently owned by Shirin Golian, has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water service over the past few years. Most notably, between April and October 2023, there were multiple complaints (including four separate incidents within a two-week period in October 2023) regarding lack of heat and hot water affecting the entire building, with some complaints coming from apartment units specifically reporting the problem.

A more recent complaint was filed in November 2024 concerning heat/hot water issues in an individual apartment, though this was investigated and deemed not to violate housing laws. The building has also faced plumbing challenges, with water supply issues reported in January and April 2023, as well as October 2022, all of which were investigated and resolved without violations being issued. In terms of safety equipment, a violation was recorded in October 2023 regarding defective carbon monoxide detectors in the first-floor apartment, though this violation was certified as corrected by November 2023.

Other complaints of note include an April 2024 report of a large number of mosquitoes, which was addressed by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene. The building's only documented maintenance issue predating this period was a non-emergency complaint about ceiling paint/plaster in August 2021, and it passed a rodent inspection in July 2014. While the heat and water issues represent the most significant pattern of complaints affecting resident comfort, it's worth noting that all reported complaints were investigated and generally resolved by relevant city agencies.
