24-07 Brookhaven Avenue, Queens, NY 11691

The two-family house at 24-07 Brookhaven Avenue in Far Rockaway, owned by Zhen Ju Yu, has experienced significant maintenance issues, particularly in late summer 2022. Most notably, multiple violations and service requests were recorded in September 2022, including problems with water leaks, various appliance malfunctions (refrigerator and electric/gas range), issues with paint and plaster (particularly in the ceiling and walls), and heat/hot water concerns.

These complaints led to violations being issued by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), with specific violations documented for the second-floor apartment including a roach infestation, water-related issues affecting the bathroom ceiling, and concerns about the roof leaking. The building has also documented violations related to safety equipment, such as a requirement to repair or replace carbon monoxide detectors.

Earlier records from December 2019 show a failed rodent inspection for "Other Reasons," indicating past pest management concerns. A review of recent complaints shows some positive resolution, as several complaints from September 2022 were closed with violations being addressed, though as of the latest available data these issues had been marked as "Closed" rather than fully resolved. The building's history suggests ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly regarding plumbing and appliance reliability, with notable incidents clustered around summer 2022.
