65-20 Booth Street, Queens, NY 11374
The 6-story, 67-unit residential building at 65-20 Booth Street in Rego Park, owned by Jacob Landau, has shown several concerning patterns in the past year. Most notably, there have been persistent heat and hot water issues, with three separate complaints about the entire building's heating systems between March and April 2025, and multiple inspections unable to gain building access.
The building has also experienced recurring elevator maintenance problems, with two complaints in 2025, though inspections found no violations. There are significant unsanitary conditions reported regarding garbage/recycling storage, with multiple complaints and inspections between January and April 2025, though most inspections found no violations of housing laws. The building has active violations from late 2024 related to a kitchen partition wall in apartment 4L constructed without a permit, and various historical issues including a roof leak affecting apartment 6H, door closure mechanism problems, and multiple housing maintenance code violations from 2024.
The first-floor apartment 1H has several open violations from a September 2024 inspection, including concerns about mold, pest infestation, bathroom conditions, and multiple repair needs. Previous complaints about illegal conversions and occupancy issues have been documented between 2023-2025, and while the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations since 2020 with no reported cases, there have been historical rodent inspection failures in 2013 and 2015. The building's recent history suggests ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly regarding heating systems and garbage management, though many recent complaints have been resolved or closed following inspections.
