13-29 Mcbride Street, Queens, NY 11691

The two-family house at 13-29 McBride Street in Bayswater, owned by Yakov Albaliya, has experienced several concerning maintenance issues over the past five years. Most notably, there have been recurring problems with mold in the building, with documented complaints in September 2019 and July 2020.

The 2019 incident was investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) but resulted in no violations, while the 2020 complaint was resolved after HPD verified corrections were made. More troubling is an open violation from January 2020 in the first-floor apartment, where the building was cited for a mouse infestation and a hazardous condition involving a loose oven door in the kitchen, as classified under the Housing Maintenance Code as "Class B" violations, which typically require correction within specified timeframes. The two-story, 1931-built property has experienced these notable issues despite its relatively small size of just 2 units.

While some complaints have been resolved and closed, the presence of open violations regarding both pest control and kitchen safety equipment as of January 2020 raises concerns about ongoing maintenance challenges. Given that these violations remain open and no subsequent inspections or resolutions have been documented in the available records, this situation warrants attention. The building's documented history suggests periodic struggles with both sanitation and safety-related maintenance issues, particularly within the first-floor apartment.
