67-25 Clyde Street, Queens, NY 11375

The 112-unit, 6-story building at 67-25 Clyde Street in Forest Hills, owned by Keith Werny and constructed in 1955, has experienced recurring heating system issues in recent months, with multiple complaints in early 2025 (January-February) and late 2023 regarding lack of heat/hot water throughout the building. While some complaints have been resolved promptly, with heat and hot water being restored, there have been instances where inspectors could not gain access to verify conditions.

The building's maintenance record shows persistent challenges, particularly with heating systems, including six heat/hot water complaints in 2024-2025, a mold issue (July 2024), and various plumbing concerns including violations noted in January 2024 inspections. The Department of Buildings has several active violations as of 2023, including an unfiled 2022 external low pressure inspection and multiple safety-related issues identified in July 2024, such as insufficiently maintained fire doors and self-closing mechanisms. Notably, there are some open violations related to Apartment 3D from July 2024 concerning water leaks and plaster/paint conditions, as well as an open violation from February 2024 regarding bathroom ceiling paint in Apartment 7T and non-compliant carbon monoxide detectors.

The building has demonstrated reasonable pest management, with the most recent bedbug reports (2023-2024) showing no active infestations, though there were some cases in 2019-2021. It's worth noting that while permits for various works have been issued in recent years (2020-2023), the frequency of heating complaints and ongoing building violations suggest ongoing maintenance challenges. The building's heating system has been a particular point of concern, with multiple emergency complaints throughout 2024-2025 indicating this remains a significant issue affecting resident comfort.
