70-38 72nd Place, Queens, NY 11385
The three-unit, two-story residential building at 70-38 72nd Place in Glendale, owned by Paul Ionescu, has experienced several significant maintenance and structural issues in recent years. Most pressing are the active structural concerns as of April 2025, with documented horizontal and step cracking at windows, lintels, and sills on the building's front, along with missing or bulging mortar posing potential safety risks.
These issues, first reported in an April 2025 Department of Buildings inspection, warrant immediate attention as they have been classified as causing "an immediate hazard to the public." Prior to this, there were multiple complaints and violations related to wall/retaining wall conditions in late 2024, including a full stop work order in April 2025 and an earlier complaint regarding structural monitoring. The building has a consistent history of complying with bedbug reporting requirements, with official reports submitted annually since 2021 showing zero infested dwelling units, zero eradicated units, and zero re-infested units each year.
Despite the regular violations for late filing of bedbug reports between 2021-2024, the property ultimately demonstrated compliance with the requirements as evidenced by the most recent bedbug report filed in May 2024, covering the period of November 2022 to October 2023. The building's historical records show no other significant violations or safety concerns, though the current structural issues represent the most serious challenge to resident safety and building integrity on record.
