115-51 196th Street, Queens, NY 11412

This two-family residential building at 115-51 196th Street in St. Albans, owned by Eric Moore, has a concerning record that spans over a decade.

The property, constructed in 1930, currently has an active Department of Buildings Environmental Control Board violation related to its flue pipe system, first issued in August 2018, with an outstanding penalty of $3,125. The violation details indicate improper support and sealing of the flue pipe to the chimney base, suggesting a potentially hazardous condition that remains unresolved more than five years later. The building's rodent inspection history between 2011 and 2013 shows a pattern of pest management challenges.

While there were two successful inspections in June 2011 and one in March 2013, the property experienced five consecutive failed inspections during 2011-2013, indicating ongoing infestations or sanitation issues that required attention. The most recent rodent inspection records available through 2023 suggest these concerns may have persisted for an extended period, though more recent inspection data is not available. The combination of unresolved flue pipe violations and a documented history of rodent control difficulties raises concerns about the building's maintenance history and current habitability conditions.
