114-31 120th Street, Queens, NY 11420

The two-family house at 114-31 120th Street in South Ozone Park, owned by Colleen Mcentee, has experienced multiple maintenance and safety issues in recent months. In April 2024, the building generated several concerning complaints, including problems with plumbing (specifically basins/sinks), appliance malfunctions (including electric/gas ranges and refrigerators), heat or hot water issues in at least one apartment, and smoke detector concerns.

While some of these complaints were investigated and resulted in violations, others were closed without inspection due to the Department of Housing Preservation and Development's inability to gain access to the units. The building's history reveals previous regulatory scrutiny, with multiple Department of Buildings complaints between 2018-2020 related to potential illegal conversions and illegal hotel rooms, though most of these investigations either found no violations or resulted in partial vacate orders.

A significant violation was logged in September 2020 regarding a failure to certify corrections on an immediately hazardous condition, though this was dismissed in July 2021. Additional concerns were documented in early April 2024 regarding paint/plaster issues with cabinets and flooring problems. Given the clustering of recent complaints and violations especially relating to basic services like heat/hot water and safety devices, this building has shown persistent maintenance challenges requiring attention over time.
