117-24 200th Street, Queens, NY 11412

This 2-family house located at 117-24 200th Street in St. Albans is a 2-story property built in 1925, currently owned by John Kaye. The building has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues over the past two decades, with the most recent incident being a mosquito infestation reported to the Department of Health in September 2023.

A series of serious violations were documented in 2013, including illegal apartment conversions, unauthorized cooking facilities in the attic, and partitioning issues, all of which fall under Class B violations. Prior to these, in 2012, the upper apartment suffered from inadequate hot water and electrical service problems, classified as Class C violations, while 2007 records revealed issues with vermin infestation, plumbing problems, and construction debris in the yard. More recent activity includes two permits issued in 2018 and 2019, suggesting some form of renovation or compliance work was undertaken, though the specific nature of these permits (EW and PL permits) is not detailed in the building's records.

The property has transitioned from its original single-family designation to a 2-family classification, with multiple code violations related to unauthorized conversions and occupancy patterns. While the building shows some recent permit activity that may indicate improvements, the persistence of various housing maintenance code violations over the years suggests ongoing challenges with building maintenance and compliance. The most recent mosquito complaint in 2023, while relatively minor compared to past violations, indicates that pest control issues continue to affect the property.
