3-09 Beach 53rd Street, Queens, NY 11691

3-09 Beach 53rd Street in Edgemere is a 16-unit, 4-story residential building constructed in 2004 and currently owned by Aviram Chen. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with emergency complaints logged in January 2023 and November 2022, and was unable to allow inspections in response to a heat complaint in October 2021.

A cluster of maintenance issues was documented in late 2021, including problems with flooring, electrical systems, doors, plumbing fixtures, and ventilation, though no violations were issued following HPD inspections. The building has maintained a clean bedbug record since 2019, with no reported infestations or eradications in the past five annual reports, including the most recent July 2025 filing. Earlier inspections from 2010 indicated initial rat activity followed by a passed compliance inspection.

Three consecutive housing maintenance code violations were issued between 2021 and 2023 for failure to file annual bedbug reports, though these were subsequently closed. The property shows adequate responsiveness to maintenance issues, with multiple permits issued in 2019 for various work, including PL and EW permits. Despite the heat and hot water concerns, the building has not accumulated any current violations and has demonstrated regular bedbug reporting compliance since 2019, with zero reported cases in the past five years.
