71-08 66th Street, Queens, NY 11385

The three-story, six-unit residential building at 71-08 66th Street in Glendale, owned by Vlash Pepa, has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water services, most recently registering a complaint in October 2023 that was closed due to lack of access for inspection. The property, which dates back to 1931, has documented multiple heat/hot water complaints in recent years, including several incidents in 2020 (April, December 8, and December 9) that required emergency responses, though these were ultimately resolved.

The building currently has several open violations with the Department of Buildings regarding failures to file annual external low-pressure inspections between 2018-2022 and for the 2020 boiler inspection. The building's maintenance history shows periodic challenges with both pest control and waste management, including rodent-related concerns in July 2018 (though subsequent inspections passed) and unsanitary garbage/recycling storage conditions during the same period.

While there have been multiple bedbug-related reporting requirements from 2021 to present, recent filings (most recently in 2022) indicate zero reported infestations during the specified periods. An indoor air quality complaint regarding chemical vapors was logged in October 2021 and an investigation into garbage storage conditions was conducted in July 2018, though no violations were issued in relation to the latter. Of particular note, the most recent bedbug report in 2022 showed no infested units or re-infestations, while previous reports from 2019-2021 also showed no documented infestations, suggesting effective pest management when compared to typical building benchmarks.
