13-23 Mcbride Street, Queens, NY 11691

The 2-family house at 13-23 McBride Street in Bayswater, owned by Mcbride St. Realty Corp., has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, in late 2023, the building received multiple Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) violations related to electrical problems (including no lighting and wiring issues), flooring concerns, and wall maintenance, all of which were classified as emergencies.

These violations resulted in inspections that identified various maintenance needs requiring attention. The property has also been subject to extensive violations in December 2023, particularly in the second-floor apartment (2FL), including problems with kitchen tiles, bathtub condition, wash basin replacement, wall plastering and painting, electrical service, and the presence of pests. An inspection revealed a range of problems needing repair, including issues with kitchen countertops, bathroom fixtures, and mold conditions.

Historical records show that the building had numerous complaints in August 2018 regarding flooring, wall conditions, and unsanitary conditions including mold, though inspectors were unable to gain access to verify these issues at that time. The property has been regularly monitored for bedbug infestations between 2021 and 2024, with no reported cases or eradications, suggesting this particular pest has not been an issue. While there are recent construction permits on record from 2020 for alterations, their current status remains undetermined. The building's maintenance history exhibits recurring patterns of electrical, flooring, and wall-related issues, with the most recent violations being particularly concentrated in the 2FL apartment, indicating potential ongoing maintenance challenges that require attention.
