10-78 Gipson Street, Queens, NY 11691

The three-story, three-unit building at 10-78 Gipson Street in Bayswater, owned by Junior Lambert, has experienced several maintenance issues since its construction in 2006. Most notably, in early 2025, there were multiple complaints about various building systems, including heat/hot water problems affecting the entire building, window frame issues, and electrical problems resulting in no lighting - all of which inspectors were unable to access to verify conditions. In January 2023, the building faced several enforcement actions, including multiple violations related to unit 3 involving lighting fixtures, a refrigerator door seal, ceiling plaster and paint, and a mold condition in the bathroom.

While some of these violations were certified as corrected by March 2023, there remained an open Class C violation regarding excessively hot water above 130 degrees in unit 3, as well as issues with roof leaks affecting the bathroom ceiling. The building's maintenance history also shows recurring electrical issues, with two separate "no lighting" complaints in 2023 and 2025. Additionally, there have been various appliance-related complaints, including problems with the electric/gas range and refrigerator in January 2023.

The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with no reported cases in the past three filing periods from 2019 to 2025. An important violation from April 2024 was issued for failing to file the required annual bedbug report, though this appears to be an administrative oversight. The building's general maintenance issues have included problems with signage, yard maintenance, and various heating system concerns, suggesting ongoing challenges with building systems and resident amenities. While several violations and complaints have been resolved, the most recent issues in 2025 indicate that some maintenance challenges persist at this relatively new building.
