191-15 119th Avenue, Queens, NY 11412

As of July 2025, the two-family house at 191-15 119th Avenue in St. Albans, owned by Jasbir Thind, is experiencing ongoing pest-related issues. Between August 2023 and May 2024, there were three complaints about pest infestations, with two of them resulting in Housing Maintenance Code violations, specifically noting bedbug infestations in Apartment 2 and missing carbon monoxide detection devices as of May 2024.

These recent developments raise significant concern about resident comfort and safety. The building has a documented history of heat and hot water issues, with an emergency complaint in October 2019 that was reportedly resolved quickly. The property has faced serious regulatory challenges, particularly in late 2021, when Department of Buildings investigations revealed unauthorized construction work in the cellar level, including partitions for two rooms, plumbing installation, and electrical work.

This led to active Environmental Control Board violations for work without a permit and unauthorized conversion to a three-family dwelling configuration, for which penalties of $1,280 and $2,530 respectively were imposed. While the building is officially registered as a two-family structure, these violations indicate it was temporarily operating as a three-family unit. The pest control issues and housing code violations suggest ongoing maintenance challenges, though the building's relatively recent construction date (2007) indicates this may not be expected for a property of this age.
