71-27 65th Place, Queens, NY 11385

The three-story, six-unit tenement building at 71-27 65th Place in Glendale, owned by Slavica Stopanjac and built in 1931, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, with the most pressing being a heat and hot water outage affecting the entire building in December 2019. While this issue was reportedly resolved within a day, it marked a notable lapse in essential services.

More recently, in April 2024, the building received an open Class A violation related to failure to file annual bedbug reports, which follows a pattern of similar violations in 2021 and 2022. Between 2021 and 2022, the building submitted bedbug reports indicating zero infestation cases during the reporting periods from November 2019-October 2020 and November 2021-October 2022, suggesting successful management of this issue despite the reporting violation.

The building's maintenance history shows a concerning pattern of pest management challenges, particularly in 2014 when multiple rodent inspections revealed problems requiring bait application from February through April, with initial inspections showing rat activity in December 2013 and some failed compliance results in September and February 2014. However, more recent inspections and filings from 2021-2022 have shown no recorded infestations. The property has generally maintained compliance with health department requirements since the bedbug-related violations, with no other major service disruptions or violations noted in recent years, though the age and history of these buildings suggest ongoing maintenance requirements are to be expected.
