22-51 Dix Avenue, Queens, NY 11691

22-51 Dix Avenue is a 4-story, 30-unit Class A residential building constructed in 1998, currently owned by John Warren. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues in recent months, particularly between April and June 2025, with multiple violations documented for unsanitary conditions related to garbage/recycling storage and pest infestations.

Notably, there are two open violations as of June 2025 regarding garbage/recycling storage, which require correction by the property owner under HPD regulations. The building has also faced significant elevator-related challenges, with multiple complaints throughout 2024-2025 indicating problems with the single elevator service and related safety equipment, though most inspections concluded with "No Violation Warranted" or similar findings. The most concerning issues appear to be concentrated in apartment 2F, which has been the subject of several violations, including C-class citations for hot water availability and B-class violations for defective carbon monoxide and smoke detectors.

The apartment has documented pest infestation problems (specifically roaches), water damage to ceilings/walls, and concerns about electrical wiring/extension cords in common areas. The building's environmental control board violations show ongoing concerns with elevator maintenance and functionality, and while the rodent inspections generally pass, there have been periods of failure noted in 2019-2021. Notably, there have been no bedbug infestations reported in recent years, and the property has maintained regular rodent inspections that currently show compliance as of February 2025.
