111-38 76th Drive, Queens, NY 11375

111-38 76th Drive is a three-unit, three-story residential building located in Forest Hills, built in 1935 and currently owned by Suk Lee. The property has persistent open violations related to bedbug reporting requirements for 2022, 2023, and 2024, indicating non-compliance with Housing Maintenance Code requirements. The building has experienced recurring rodent-related issues, with the most recent mouse sighting reported in January 2023, though Health Department inspections in response to these complaints have generally not found violations, with the property passing inspection in January 2023.

The building's maintenance history shows significant structural concerns from 2021, including active Environmental Control Board violations citing issues with the wooden soffit and fascia above the first-floor window and problems with the garage roof and door, with penalties totaling $2,500. These environmental issues were noted to be in disrepair, rotted, and vulnerable to the elements. The property has a concerning pattern of building safety and maintenance complaints over recent years.

Between 2020 and 2025, there have been multiple complaints about the building being vacant, open, and unguarded, with inspections sometimes resulting in violations. Two separate complaints related to building shaking/vibrating and structural stability were recorded in 2021, with Oath violations served. Rodent inspections from 2016 through 2019 consistently failed for various reasons, suggesting an ongoing pest control challenge. While the most recent rodent-related complaint from January 2023 was closed with the building passing inspection, the frequency and recurrence of related complaints and violations throughout the years indicate persistent maintenance and compliance issues that have required ongoing attention.
