137-05 Cross Bay Boulevard, Queens, NY 11417

The two-family home at 137-05 Cross Bay Boulevard in Ozone Park, owned by Samr Hussain, is a 1925 two-story building that has transitioned to a Class A dwelling. The property has experienced several maintenance issues, with the most significant cluster of problems occurring in early 2020 when multiple emergency housing maintenance code complaints were filed, including those related to carbon monoxide detectors, smoke detectors, and various unsanitary conditions.

These complaints, all filed on January 27, 2020, were subsequently addressed and closed by late January and February 2020. Specifically, the building underwent repairs to address mold, various wall and ceiling conditions, window frames and panes, cabinet issues, and plumbing concerns related to the bathtub/shower. More recently, the building has had ongoing administrative requirements regarding bedbug reporting.

While violations were documented in 2021, 2022, 2023, and most recently in 2024 for failure to submit the annual bedbug report, the property has consistently reported "0" infested dwelling units, "0" eradicated units, and "0" re-infested units in its annual filings. The most recent bedbug report filing in May 2023 covered the period from November 2021 to October 2022, showing no infestation issues during that time. While the building has had its share of maintenance issues, particularly in 2020, the prompt resolution of those problems and the absence of reported bedbug infestations in recent years indicates improved conditions, though the recurring bedbug report violation notices from 2021 through 2024 suggest some administrative oversight challenges.
