13-58 Pinson Street, Queens, NY 11691

The two-family house at 13-58 Pinson Street in Bayswater, owned by Bansraj Sukhu, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues since its construction in 2006. Most notably, there have been repeated heating and hot water system failures, with emergencies reported in both January and December 2023, as well as multiple occurrences in 2019, all requiring intervention from the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD).

The building also faced significant utility system challenges in April 2019, including power outages and cooking gas problems, which resulted in multiple HPD violations. In the summer of 2022, multiple complaints were filed regarding unsanitary conditions, including mold and pest problems, along with appliance issues related to the refrigerator, though HPD was unable to access the premises for inspection in these cases.

A 2020 inspection revealed a fire safety violation concerning obstructing bars or gates on a window in the first-floor apartment. The building's history indicates a pattern of maintenance concerns that affect basic services, particularly regarding heat, hot water, and utility systems, with many issues specifically impacting the first-floor apartment. While most violations have been officially closed, the repeated nature of these complaints suggests ongoing challenges with building systems and maintenance responsiveness.
