60-18 St Felix Avenue, Queens, NY 11385

The three-story, three-unit residential building at 60-18 St Felix Avenue in Glendale, owned by Norma Espinal, was constructed in 2006 and has experienced several notable maintenance issues over the past several years. Most concerning is the pattern of bedbug-related violations, with four consecutive annual violations (2021-2024) documented under Housing Maintenance Code § HMC requiring the filing of annual bedbug reports.

More recently, the building faced a heat and hot water emergency in October 2022 that required intervention from the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), though inspectors were unable to gain access to any units during their investigation. This heat and hot water issue was classified as affecting the entire building and was officially closed on October 10, 2022. As of now, there are three open violations regarding bedbug reporting requirements from 2022, 2023, and 2024, each pertaining to the failure to file the necessary annual bedbug reports as mandated by HPD regulations.

The building's most recent documented inspection in April 2024 confirmed the continued existence of this violation, bringing to five consecutive years of non-compliance with this specific requirement. While these violations primarily represent administrative requirements rather than direct health or safety concerns, they do indicate a pattern of oversight in maintaining required documentation. Beyond these issues, the building's overall record shows no other significant complaints or violations on file.
