71-06 65th Place, Queens, NY 11385

The three-story, six-unit New Law tenement building at 71-06 65th Place in Glendale, owned by Enver Suma and constructed in 1931, has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past several years, with particular concerns regarding building systems and sanitation. Most notably, there have been multiple heat and hot water complaints in late 2023 and early 2024, including two emergency calls for lack of heat/hot water affecting the entire building.

These incidents were either resolved promptly or access for inspection was denied, though they indicate potential underlying infrastructure problems. The building has also faced sanitation challenges, with multiple complaints about garbage/recycling storage and pest issues in 2025, 2023, and earlier, though inspections often found no violations. The property has several open Housing Maintenance Code Violations from 2023 related to safety and regulatory compliance, including failure to post required notices about smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, and gas leak procedures in common areas.

Additionally, there are active Department of Buildings violations from 2018-2024 regarding failure to file required external low-pressure inspections, suggesting potential concerns with building systems maintenance. While recent bedbug reports from 2024 and 2025 indicate no active infestations, the building's history shows recurring issues with water systems, including a heavy flow water leak in 2021 and plumbing concerns in 2022. The property's rodent inspections show mixed results, with failures for "Other Reasons" in 2022 and 2025, though 2025 inspections passed compliance.
