Does 43-55 Kissena Boulevard, Queens have open violations?

Yes. 43-55 Kissena Boulevard, Queens had 20 open violations on September 27, 2026: 18 from HPD and 2 from OATH/ECB. 4 are Class C, the class HPD treats as immediately hazardous. The oldest open HPD violation has been open 38 years, since July 5, 1988.

Is 43-55 Kissena Boulevard, Queens getting better or worse?

Open violations are sitting, with little movement either way. 4 open Class C, with 0 certifications filed and 2 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 43-55 Kissena Boulevard, Queens?

Since September 29, 2023, certifications were filed on 3 Class C violations: 2 by the original certify-by date, 1 after it. 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.

Does 43-55 Kissena Boulevard, Queens have an OATH hearing coming up?

Yes. A hearing on a DOB summons is set for March 15, 2027. DOB summonses are heard at OATH, the city's hearings office, and OATH can move a hearing to a later date. When nobody shows up, the summons is decided by default, the costliest way one ends.

Does 43-55 Kissena Boulevard, Queens have active DOB violations?

Yes. 3 active DOB violations, most of them for not benchmarking energy use. The newest was issued September 23, 2024. The Department of Buildings writes these separately from HPD's housing violations, for things like boilers, elevators, facades, construction and energy filings. Each one stays active until DOB resolves or dismisses it.

Are any HPD emergency repair orders at 43-55 Kissena Boulevard, Queens marked completed?

Yes. 2 completed HPD emergency repair orders since September 29, 2023, awarded for $810 in total. The most recent of the 2, a general construction order, was opened April 30, 2024. 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.

Does 43-55 Kissena Boulevard, Queens have a certificate of occupancy?

Its latest certificate of occupancy is temporary, renewed July 13, 2026. A certificate of occupancy says how a building may be used and occupied. A temporary one lets people move in while work finishes and has to be renewed until DOB issues the final one. DOB's records here start in July 2012, so an older certificate may not show.

When did 43-55 Kissena Boulevard, Queens last file its bedbug report?

On December 29, 2025, for the year to October 31, 2025. HPD asks the owner of every building with 3 or more apartments for this report once a year, covering November 1 to October 31, including buildings that had no bedbugs.

Is 43-55 Kissena Boulevard, Queens covered by Local Law 97?

Yes. It is on DOB's Local Law 97 covered buildings list. Covered from 2026 as a rent-regulated building (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 43-55 Kissena Boulevard, Queens rent stabilized?

The building has rent-stabilized apartments on its 2024 registration. That comes from the Rent Guidelines Board's list of buildings with at least one stabilized apartment registered that year. Buildings that registered late are left off, and a 421-a or J-51 building can leave stabilization when its tax benefit ends. A particular apartment's status is for NYS HCR to say.

When was 43-55 Kissena Boulevard, Queens built?

The city's record gives 1938 as the year 43-55 Kissena Boulevard, Queens was built, in the Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file. The same file classes it as a condominium with 6 floors.

How many apartments does 43-55 Kissena Boulevard, Queens have?

The Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file lists 56 residential units at 43-55 Kissena Boulevard, Queens. The count is for the whole tax lot.

Where do these numbers come from?

From New York City's own data: HPD housing violations and OATH/ECB hearing results, read whole rather than sampled. It also draws on OATH hearing dates, DOB violations, the Rent Guidelines Board's stabilized-building lists, DOB certificates of occupancy, HPD emergency repair orders, HPD's annual bedbug reports, DOB's Local Law 97 covered buildings list and the city's PLUTO tax-lot file. This page is current through September 27, 2026. The city's data changes daily, so a violation certified after that can still show as open here; the city's own page for this building is linked above.

Sources. HPD housing violations and OATH/ECB hearing results, plus OATH hearing dates, DOB violations, the Rent Guidelines Board's stabilized-building lists, DOB certificates of occupancy, HPD emergency repair orders, HPD's annual bedbug reports, DOB's Local Law 97 covered buildings list and the city's PLUTO tax-lot file. Counts cover HPD Class B and C violations from the last 3 years that HPD still shows open, and OATH/ECB summonses from the same 3 years that the city still shows active. The city's own pages can show more, never fewer.
