72-55 Metropolitan Avenue, Queens, NY 11379
The three-unit, two-story building located at 72-55 Metropolitan Avenue in Middle Village, owned by Joseph Benji, has been consistently cited for failing to comply with New York City's Housing Maintenance Code requirements regarding annual bedbug reporting over a four-year period from 2021 to 2024.
Each year between 2021 and 2024, the Department of Housing Preservation & Development (HPD) issued Class A violations for the property's failure to file the required annual bedbug reports, and notably, the most recent violation from April 2024 remains open as of the current date.
The building, which was constructed in 1930, is classified as "HERETOFORE CONVERTED CLASS A," indicating it has undergone some form of conversion from its original use. While these bedbug reporting violations are significant, particularly in relation to resident comfort and safety, it is worth noting that there are no recorded physical infrastructure or safety violations in the available data, and the building's overall inspection record does not indicate any ongoing pest infestations, as the violations appear to be strictly administrative in nature.
