150 Cross Bay Boulevard, Queens, NY 11414

The Cross Bay Boulevard property is a 2-story, 131-unit Class A multiple dwelling built in 1957 and currently owned by Joseph Donofrio. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water system issues, with multiple emergency complaints filed between January 2024 and December 2024, including two identical complaints filed on December 23, 2024.

The property has also faced general maintenance challenges, with a significant number of HPD inspections unable to gain access to apartments for verification of reported conditions. In June 2023, an Environmental Control Board violation was issued related to unauthorized electrical installations in one second-floor apartment, though this was subsequently resolved with a penalty of $830. The building currently has multiple housing maintenance code violations from December 2024 inspections, primarily related to inadequate emergency and safety notices in common areas, including carbon monoxide detector requirements, smoke detector requirements, and gas leak procedures.

While these violations have been certified for correction as of March 2025, some remain open, including C-class violations regarding heating system access notification requirements. Recent inspections show no bedbug activity reported for the 2023-2024 period, and the property has consistently passed rodent inspections in 2012, 2016, and most recently in 2024. The building's maintenance history suggests ongoing challenges with basic services, particularly heating systems, despite some improvements and compliance efforts in other areas.
