56-57 61st Street, Queens, NY 11378

The 4-unit, 2-story residential building at 56-57 61st Street in Maspeth, owned by Karen Deangelis and constructed in 1915 as a New Law Tenement, has experienced several notable events over recent years. The property has maintained an exemplary record regarding bedbug infestations, with annual reports consistently showing zero infested or eradicated units between 2019 and the present, including the most recent filings in late 2023 and 2024.

While the building has had two Housing Maintenance Code violations related to bedbug reporting requirements in 2021 and 2023, these appear to be administrative in nature rather than indicating any actual infestation problems, as evidenced by the complete absence of reported infestations. The only emergency complaint on record was related to heating or hot water issues in late 2018, but this was promptly addressed and closed within three days.

The building's maintenance record suggests generally responsible ownership, with the most recent bedbug filings consistently demonstrating compliance with HPD requirements despite the earlier violations. The lack of any recent housing code violations or complaints in the last several years, particularly regarding pest control or basic services, indicates stable conditions for residents. The property's age and historical classification as a New Law Tenement suggest it has undergone typical maintenance and regulatory oversight expected of similar buildings in New York City.
