61-10 69th Lane, Queens, NY 11379

The two-family house at 61-10 69th Lane in Middle Village, owned by Marie Guez-McGee, has been experiencing significant maintenance issues in recent months. The most pressing concerns involve recurring heat and hot water problems throughout 2024, with eight separate complaints filed between January 1 and January 12, 2024, all designated as emergencies.

These complaints have resulted in multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations, particularly affecting apartments on the 1st and 2nd floors, including issues with inadequate heat supply and incomplete hot water service at various fixtures. As of mid-January 2024, there are still open violations related to heating and hot water systems in both apartments, with additional safety concerns regarding a missing carbon monoxide detector in the 2nd floor apartment. The building has also faced utility-related challenges, including a power outage reported in November 2023 (no violations issued) and a plumbing issue involving a toilet in January 2024, though no violations resulted from that inspection.

A Department of Buildings complaint from August 2023 regarding non-conforming zoning use was eventually closed with an Oath Violation served in August 2024. More recently, an Environmental Control Board violation was issued in August 2024 regarding improper vehicle parking in a residential district, with an associated $500 penalty that remains active. Prior to these recent issues, the building underwent two rodent inspections in 2016, passing one and failing the other for unspecified reasons.
