70-03 65th Place, Queens, NY 11385

The three-story, six-unit tenement building at 70-03 65th Place in Glendale, built in 1931 and currently owned by Shimon Lieberman, has experienced recurring pest-related issues over the past several years. Most recently, in early 2023, there was an unsanitary conditions complaint related to pests that was investigated by HPD but resulted in no violations being issued.

Similar pest complaints were recorded in 2022, 2018, and during previous years, with many of these inspections being unable to gain access to the premises. The building has also experienced several other maintenance issues, including a plumbing problem with a bathtub/shower in 2020 (an emergency complaint that was resolved), a heat and hot water issue affecting the entire building in March 2020, and various maintenance concerns in 2018 including electrical problems, mold issues, ceiling problems, and door/windom repairs - most of which occurred in October 2018 when multiple complaints were filed. The property has two active violations as of June 2023 related to failure to file external low-pressure inspections for 2018 and 2019.

There appears to be a discrepancy with bedbug reporting; while there were violations issued in 2021 and 2022 for failing to file annual bedbug reports, the subsequent filings from 2022 through 2024 consistently show zero infested dwelling units, suggesting successful eradication efforts. The building's maintenance history reveals a pattern of unresolved access issues during inspections, though some violations have been properly certified as corrected. These historical maintenance issues indicate a building with periodic maintenance challenges, though recent bedbug reporting and the absence of recent violations suggest some improvement in pest management practices.
