61-15 97th Street, Queens, NY 11374
61-15 97th Street is a 14-story, 445-unit residential building constructed in 1960, currently owned by Carole Cassidy. The building has experienced multiple recurring issues over recent years, with particular attention needed on water-related problems.
In 2024 and early 2025, there have been several emergencies reported regarding heat and hot water outages, particularly in December 2024, though these issues were reportedly resolved upon inspection. A cluster of inspections in September 2024 revealed multiple violations related to mold, water damage, and paint/plaster issues, particularly affecting unit 15H on the 14th floor, where violations were documented for ceiling and wall conditions in multiple rooms including the bathroom. The property has also faced ongoing challenges with sanitation and pest control, evidenced by multiple 311 complaints about sewage issues in 2024 and reports of rodent activity, with recent inspections in 2025 and 2024 indicating rat activity.
A Department of Health inspection in July 2024 found violations regarding rodent conditions. The building's facade and elevator systems have been under scrutiny, with an active facade inspection issue (LL11/98) reported in late 2024, and multiple elevator-related complaints in 2025 and 2024, though inspections did not find violations at those times. While the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbugs, with no reported infestations in recent years, the property has several outstanding DOB violations as of 2024-2025 related to unsafe conditions and unanswered service requests.
