60-01 70th Avenue, Queens, NY 11385

The three-story, two-family house at 60-01 70th Avenue in Ridgewood, built in 1908 and currently owned by Zef Gjini, has experienced several notable issues in recent years. Most concerning is the active violation for failure to file annual boiler inspection reports from 2018-2023, with a current penalty of $625. The building underwent significant electrical work in 2018, specifically the removal of electrical apparatus throughout most of the building, which resulted in a $1,600 penalty that was later resolved.

Multiple violations related to boiler inspections were issued in 2023-2024, all of which remain active. The property has faced recurring pest control challenges, particularly involving rodents, with recent inspections in 2024 showing improvement (passed inspection) compared to previous years. While there were several food establishment-related complaints between 2021-2024, including issues with bare hands in contact with food and rodent/insect concerns, these were either addressed or closed without finding violations.

The building's permit history shows regular maintenance and work permits being issued between 2018-2022, including plumbing and electrical work. The most recent health-related complaint was regarding an odor from a food establishment in 2024, which was investigated but did not result in violations. Despite these issues, the building has consistently passed rodent inspections in recent years, with no bedbug infestations reported in the most recent filing period of 2022-2023. The property has undergone various construction and maintenance work as evidenced by multiple permits issued through the Department of Buildings, showing ongoing attention to building systems and infrastructure.
