3-05 Beach 68th Street, Queens, NY 11692

The 2-family house at 3-05 Beach 68th Street in Arverne, owned by Chang Sheng Chen, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues since its construction in 2003. Most notably, there have been multiple water leak incidents, with heavy flow leaks reported in both December 2023 and February 2024, both classified as emergency situations.

More recently, in August 2024, there was an appliance-related issue involving a refrigerator, though this complaint was resolved without any violations being issued. The building has also faced heat and hot water system challenges, with complaints filed in late 2018 and early 2019. The 2018 complaint indicated a building-wide issue that was resolved shortly after, while the 2019 complaint concerned an apartment-specific problem that could not be inspected due to lack of access.

Water maintenance issues appear to persist as a current concern, with two emergency complaints filed in late 2023 and early 2024. The property underwent rodent inspections in 2016, passing one and failing another for unspecified reasons. While the building is relatively new at 22 years old, the pattern of water-related issues suggests ongoing plumbing system challenges, though recent inspections have not resulted in any documented violations.
