11-52 Neilson Street, Queens, NY 11691

This 3-story, 3-unit building at 11-52 Neilson Street in Far Rockaway, owned by Michelle Mcghie, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past few years. Most notably, in 2023, there were multiple violations related to lead-based paint hazards in the third-floor apartment (Apartment 3), including problems with window frames, door frames, radiators, and walls that required remediation according to New York City's Administrative Code.

These violations, which were classified from A to C in severity, indicate a serious historical maintenance issue that was ultimately addressed, with certification of compliance completed in May 2024. The building has also faced heating system challenges, with complaints about heat and hot water service affecting the entire building in both January 2023 (closed without violations) and May 2023 (after which housing violations were issued).

A significant maintenance issue in 2023 was the malfunctioning smoke detector in Apartment 3, which received a C-class violation but was repaired and certified in July 2023. The building's bedbug reporting history shows consistent compliance with reporting requirements between 2019 and 2024, with no documented infestations, suggesting effective pest management practices. While the building, constructed in 1930, is classified as a "HERETOFORE CONVERTED CLASS A" property under NYC building codes, it has exhibited recurring maintenance issues that appear to have been addressed through official inspection and violation processes, with no active violations or complaints on record as of the most recent data in 2024.
