212-10 99th Avenue, Queens, NY 11429

The two-story, four-unit residential building at 212-10 99th Avenue in Queens Village, built in 1931 and currently owned by Allah Noor, has experienced several significant events in recent years that warrant attention. Most notably, there are four open Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2021-2024 related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports, and multiple violations from 2019 concerning inadequate building signage and security, including problems with the entrance door locking device and required gas leak safety postings. The building has a documented history of plumbing issues, with multiple emergency complaints about toilet and sink problems in 2019, including one instance of scalding hot water in an occupied unit (2F) that was later resolved.

In late 2019, the property underwent inspection revealing several concerning conditions, including unauthorized construction work creating a standup shower and kitchen sink in the cellar, and evidence suggesting it was converted or occupied with more than the legally authorized number of families. These violations resulted in multiple Environmental Control Board citations, though penalties were ultimately resolved with no balance due. The building's safety compliance history shows mixed results, with construction-related complaints in 2019 about building vibration and a stop work order that was later rescinded.

Recent rodent inspections between 2016 and 2018 show generally good results, with most inspections passing, though there was one failure for "Other Reasons" in September 2018. A significant fire incident caused damage to the first and second floors, though this violation was dismissed as the vacate order was fully rescinded. While there have been numerous repairs and improvements attempted through various permits issued in 2020, including emergency work, the outstanding code violations suggest ongoing maintenance challenges.
