Questions about this building
Does 42-07 Elbertson Street, Queens have open violations?
Yes. 42-07 Elbertson Street, Queens had 3 open violations on September 27, 2026: 3 from HPD. 3 are Class C, the class HPD treats as immediately hazardous. The oldest open HPD violation has been open 3 years, since October 25, 2022.
Is 42-07 Elbertson Street, Queens getting better or worse?
Open violations are sitting, with little movement either way. 3 open Class C, with 1 certification filed and 0 new Class C in the last 180 days, too few to call a direction. That window ends September 27, 2026. It compares certifications filed with new Class C violations, and it describes what happened, not what anyone intends.
When were certifications filed on Class C violations at 42-07 Elbertson Street, Queens?
Since September 29, 2023, certifications were filed on 9 Class C violations, all 9 by the original certify-by date. HPD now marks 1 of them Invalid Certification. A certification is the filing, dated when it was made, not HPD's acceptance of it. It is compared with the original certify-by date on the notice. A granted postponement moves that date and the city's data keeps only the first, so a certification counted after it may still have met a postponed date.
Are any HPD emergency repair orders at 42-07 Elbertson Street, Queens marked completed?
Yes. 2 completed HPD emergency repair orders since September 29, 2023, awarded for $2,045 in total. The most recent of the 2, a general construction order, was opened April 20, 2026. HPD orders an emergency repair when a hazardous condition cited in a violation, or in another agency's emergency order, is not corrected, and does the work itself or through a contractor. The amounts are what the orders were awarded for, not a bill: this page does not show what was charged to the property or whether it was paid. Orders for lab tests, such as dust-wipe and asbestos samples, are not counted.
What is the ENERGY STAR score for 42-07 Elbertson Street, Queens?
ENERGY STAR score 76 for 2024, against a median of 67 for Multifamily Housing that year. Buildings over 25,000 square feet report their energy use to the city every year under Local Law 84. The ENERGY STAR score runs from 1 to 100 and compares a building with similar ones nationwide; 50 is the national median. The score is the one the city publishes, and this page never estimates a Local Law 97 emissions penalty. A lot that reported several properties in one year is not scored here.
When was the boiler at 42-07 Elbertson Street, Queens last inspected?
On December 17, 2025. DOB requires a boiler in a building with 6 or more apartments to be inspected once every calendar year, with the report filed within 14 days of the inspection. Low-pressure boilers in residential buildings with 5 or fewer apartments are exempt.
When did 42-07 Elbertson Street, Queens last file its bedbug report?

Yes. It is on DOB's Local Law 97 covered buildings list. Covered under Article 321, the path for certain affordable housing and houses of worship (DOB's list, March 1, 2026). Local Law 97 sets greenhouse gas limits for most New York City buildings over 25,000 square feet, and DOB's covered buildings list says which path each building is on. The list reflects DOB's records, which owners can ask DOB to correct. This page never estimates a penalty or says whether a building complies.
Is 42-07 Elbertson Street, Queens rent stabilized?
