75-18 66th Drive, Queens, NY 11379

The 2-story, 4-unit residential building at 75-18 66th Drive in Middle Village, owned by Margherita La Russa and constructed in 1945, has experienced several noteworthy events in recent years. Most recently, in April 2025, there was a window frame issue that HPD attempted to inspect but was unable to complete the inspection.

In December 2021, there was a heat and hot water emergency affecting the entire building, though HPD could not gain access to inspect the problem. The building has consistently received annual violations between 2021 and 2024 related to failing to file required bedbug reports, classified as Class A violations, though these violations were ultimately closed. The property underwent a Department of Buildings inspection in March 2022 regarding an illegal conversion complaint, which was found to have no warranted violations at the time of inspection.

As of July 2025, the building's most recent bedbug reporting for the period of November 2023 to October 2024 shows no instances of infestation, eradication, or re-infestation, indicating successful compliance with pest management requirements. Given the pattern of inspection access issues recorded in both the 2021 heat/hot water complaint and the 2025 window frame complaint, there may be concerns about access to apartments for necessary inspections. However, the resolution of multiple violations and the absence of bedbug issues in the most recent reporting period suggest improved maintenance conditions.
