68-04 Eliot Avenue, Queens, NY 11379

The three-story, two-family house at 68-04 Eliot Avenue in Middle Village, owned by Ann Meyer, was constructed in 1965 and has experienced several significant events between 2018 and 2021 related to construction work and safety compliance. In April 2018, there were multiple violations related to scaffold safety, including two active ECB violations (one for lack of training cards and another for a partial stop work order) with penalties totaling $3,750, as well as a violation for work being conducted without a proper permit during ongoing renovation work that included bathroom and kitchen updates, exterior cladding, and new electrical and plumbing work.

These violations were particularly concerning due to their implications for worker safety and building code compliance. In July 2018, additional violations were recorded for failure to certify corrections on immediately hazardous (Class 1) ECB violations, though these were later dismissed in June 2019. On the permits front, the building saw regular permit issuances between 2018 and 2021, indicating ongoing renovation work.

The sequence of permit filings included several plumbing (PL) and electrical (EW) permits, with the most recent being issued on April 27, 2021. The permit history suggests that the property owners took steps to regularize the building's improvements, with permits being issued for various types of work including plumbing and electrical systems, though it's worth noting that some of this work had previously been conducted without the proper permits in 2018, leading to the aforementioned violations. While the active ECB violations regarding scaffold safety remain on record as of July 2025, there have been no documented violations or safety incidents in the past two years, suggesting improved compliance with building regulations.
