71-03 67th Place, Queens, NY 11385

The 6-unit, 3-story New Law tenement building at 71-03 67th Place in Glendale, owned by Leo Galante and constructed in 1931, has experienced several maintenance and safety issues in recent years that warrant attention. Between 2021 and early 2022, the building faced multiple emergency complaints regarding doors and windows, including three separate incidents related to doors in July, August, and September 2021, as well as pest-related complaints and plumbing issues in late 2021. A significant cluster of violations was documented in February 2022 in apartment 3L, including problems with pest infestations (roaches), missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, defective self-closing doors, and issues with bathroom waste lines, while the public hall stairs' fire retardant plaster was also found needing repair.

The building's heating system faced a no-heat/hot water complaint in November 2019, though this was reportedly resolved shortly thereafter. More recent data shows some improvement, with the building passing a rodent inspection in September 2024, though there remains an open B-class violation from February 2022 regarding fire retardant plaster repair. The property has maintained a consistent bedbug-free status across all annual reporting periods from 2021 through 2024, with no confirmed infestations or need for eradication measures.

The building's owner has filed all required annual bedbug reports from 2021 through 2024, demonstrating compliance with this specific requirement. Recent inspections in 2023 and 2024 generated A-class violations regarding bedbug reporting requirements, though these were subsequently closed. A 2019 violation related to the boiler system was addressed through an Oath Violation notice. Overall, while the building has experienced multiple maintenance issues in recent years, many of the most significant problems appear to have been resolved, though the open violations from 2022 related to apartment 3L suggest some ongoing maintenance needs.
