66-61 Fresh Pond Road, Queens, NY 11385

66-61 Fresh Pond Road is a 4-story, 6-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1930 and currently owned by Shlomo Amrossi. The building has experienced several recurring issues related to food establishment violations, particularly between 2023-2024, with multiple inspections revealing problems such as rodent/insect presence, bare hands contact with food, and unauthorized permits - though all these complaints were eventually resolved. Of particular concern is a pending food poisoning complaint from August 2022 that remains in progress as of the latest available data.

The building has also faced significant maintenance challenges, particularly in 2020, with multiple emergency heating and hot water complaints affecting both the entire building and individual apartments. Current violations suggest ongoing maintenance issues, with four active violations related to failure to file external low-pressure inspections between 2018-2022, and previous violations regarding door self-closing requirements and fire escape egress blockages that remain open from 2021. The building's recent history shows some improvements in pest management, with the 2024 bedbug report showing no infestation, though there were multiple bedbug violation notices in 2021-2024 indicating previous issues.

Rodent inspections between 2021-2022 show generally passing results, with only one failed inspection. The property has also faced environmental control board issues, including an active violation from 2018 regarding compliance with a commissioner's order, with a penalty of $2,500. Notably, there have been violations related to the building's bulkhead area and roof access, specifically regarding storage of bikes and household items, and requirements for light-colored paint. While many past violations have been resolved, the pattern of recurring issues related to food safety, maintenance, and inspection compliance suggests ongoing management challenges.
