38-06 111th Street, Queens, NY 11368

The two-story New Law Tenement building at 38-06 111th Street in Jackson Heights, currently owned by Ricardo Calle, has maintained a troubling record of unaddressed housing maintenance issues over the past several years. Most notably, there have been persistent violations related to bedbug reporting requirements, with four consecutive open violations recorded between 2021 and 2024, indicating the owner's failure to file the mandatory annual bedbug reports as required by Housing Maintenance Code (HMC) § HMC.

This pattern of non-compliance raises ongoing concerns about the building's pest management practices and the accuracy of its reported bedbug status. Looking further back into the building's history, there were significant rodent issues in 2011, with inspections revealing rat activity that summer, followed by failed compliance inspections and the application of bait in September of that year.

While these rodent problems date back over a decade, they highlight the building's past challenges with pest control. The current status of the bedbug violations, which have continued unabated for multiple years, suggests that pest management remains an ongoing concern in this building as of 2025, though it's worth noting that there have been no new reported violations since April 2024 regarding bedbugs, which could indicate potential improvement, though the violations remain officially open.
