64-08 74th Avenue, Queens, NY 11385

The property at 64-08 74th Avenue in Glendale is a 2-story, 3-unit residential building constructed in 1925, currently owned by Kazimiera Swierszcz. The building has an ongoing pattern of housing maintenance violations, with open citations for failing to file required annual bedbug reports for four consecutive years from 2021 to 2024.

In 2023, the New York City Department of Buildings received multiple complaints regarding the boiler system, with four separate reports of defective/inoperative conditions, though most of these inspections were marked as "Inspector Unable To Gain Access - 2nd Final Attempt." An environmental control board violation was issued in March 2023 regarding failure to provide access to the heating system/boiler room, which resulted in a $250 penalty that has since been resolved. The building has a history of various regulatory concerns between 2020 and 2022, including multiple complaints about suspected work without permits in occupied multiple dwellings, questions about the certificate of occupancy, and an allegation of illegal conversion.

While inspections were conducted for these complaints, in several instances, inspectors were unable to gain access to verify the conditions. A significant pattern of access issues is evident, as shown by multiple "2nd Final Attempt" designations in inspection results. The most recent building records, dating to 2023, show fewer active complaints compared to previous years, with the primary current issue being the unresolved bedbug reporting violations, which have persisted for several years despite repeated citations.
