55-07 69th Place, Queens, NY 11378

The two-family house at 55-07 69th Place in Maspeth, owned by Zhizhong Liu, has a documented history of several maintenance and compliance issues since 2017. Most notably, there have been multiple unsuccessful inspections regarding possible illegal conversions at the property between 2021 and 2023, with inspectors unable to gain access on each of the three attempts (2021, 2022, and 2023).

The building's maintenance record shows some significant concerns: in 2021, there was a complaint about unsanitary conditions related to garbage and recycling storage, though no violations were issued following the HPD inspection. More seriously, in late 2018, the first-floor apartment was cited for having hot water temperatures exceeding the 130°F limit, and while this violation was certified for correction, there is no record of subsequent inspections to confirm resolution.

The property has also experienced rodent-related issues, with two failed inspections in 2017 (April and July), though the specific nature of these violations is not detailed in the records. Given the age of the building (constructed in 1940) and these various maintenance concerns, particularly regarding access to the property for inspections, there appears to be an ongoing pattern of compliance challenges. The most recent activity on record concerns the building's possible illegal conversion status, with inspections conducted in 2021, 2022, and most recently in June 2023, though none of these inspections were able to proceed due to access issues.
