65-41 Booth Street, Queens, NY 11374

The 66-unit, 6-story residential building at 65-41 Booth Street in Rego Park, owned by Stella Kaziyeva, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues in recent years. Most notably, there are active pest control concerns, with an open complaint from June 2025 regarding unsanitary conditions and rodent sightings. The building has documented water-related problems, including multiple water leak complaints in March 2025, involving slow leaks, damp spots, and heavy flow issues.

The property has faced recurring maintenance challenges, with violations including inadequate heating/hot water systems, plumbing issues, and various ceiling repair needs. The building's inspection history reveals persistent infrastructure concerns. As of September 2024, there are multiple open violations in apartment 1L related to safety and habitability, including problems with smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, toilet flushing systems, and the need for proper door repairs. The building has also accumulated several Department of Buildings violations regarding energy efficiency compliance, with multiple active penalties related to benchmarking report submissions and energy efficiency score display requirements.

While there was a complaint about building shaking in 2019, this was investigated and found not to warrant any violations. The property has maintained a relatively clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with no reported cases in the past three years (2020-2024). Recent rodent inspections as of June 2025 resulted in a pass, though this contradicts the open pest complaint from the same month. The building's management has occasionally struggled with access issues during inspections, as evidenced by a December 2024 heat/hot water complaint and a June 2025 rodent complaint where inspectors couldn't gain access to the units.
