136-27 Springfield Blvd, Queens, NY 11413

The three-unit, two-story property at 136-27 Springfield Blvd in Laurelton, currently owned by Joseph Singletary, was constructed in 1939 and has undergone a conversion to Class A status. The building has experienced several maintenance issues over the past few years, with the most concerning being seven active violations as of 2025 related to the failure to file mandatory annual external low pressure inspections from 2018 through 2023.

A group of significant violations were documented in December 2018 specifically affecting Apartment 2, including issues with window guards, carbon monoxide detectors, pest control (mice infestation), peeling paint, and various safety concerns such as smoke detector functionality, door self-closing mechanisms, and the need for a peephole installation. The building's recent history shows a pattern of maintenance challenges between late 2018 and early 2019, including complaints about heat and hot water issues, ventilation systems, plumbing problems with radiators, appliance concerns, window repairs, and multiple water leak complaints.

While these historical issues were addressed by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), no violations were issued in those instances. On a positive note, the property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations over the past five years, with all recent annual filings (2021-2025) reporting zero infested or re-infested dwelling units. As of the latest available data, there are no current violations related to pest control or bedbugs, indicating improved conditions in these areas.
