A Queens owner was recently charged with reckless endangerment and other crimes for packing nearly 50 people in illegally converted apartments, some in garages and cellars. According to the Queens district attorney, he turned four houses in Jackson Heights and Elmhurst into fire hazards, with subdivided apartments, illegally installed utilities, and rooms without required exits. If convicted on all charges, he would face a prison sentence of up to seven years.
