205-19 Hollis Avenue, Queens, NY 11412

The two-family house at 205-19 Hollis Avenue in St. Albans, built in 1927 and currently owned by Caspian Properties LLC, has experienced several notable issues in recent years.

Most concerning is an active Environmental Control Board violation from January 2022 related to the building's boiler system, which was found to have multiple deficiencies including improper storage in the boiler room, non-compliance with manufacturer's specifications for the steam header, and missing components on controls and relief valve discharge. This violation carries a penalty of $655, though the balance due is listed as $0. Additionally, in late 2018 to early 2019, the building received a Department of Health and Mental Hygiene warning regarding food worker hygiene issues that required the owner to address potential violations.

On a more positive note, the building has experienced no documented bedbug infestations between 2018 and 2020, with multiple reports confirming zero infested or eradicated units during that period. The property's two-unit configuration and two-story structure remain consistent with its original specifications. While the building has faced some regulatory challenges, particularly regarding the boiler system which represents a safety consideration, there have been no recent complaints or violations reported in the past three years as of October 2023.
