71-05 69th Street, Queens, NY 11385

The two-family house at 71-05 69th Street in Glendale, owned by Gheorghe Sita, has a history of maintenance issues spanning over two decades, with the most significant problems occurring in December 2004 affecting the first floor unit. Those violations included various water-related issues, with records showing concealed water leaks in the bathroom, water-stained ceilings throughout the entire apartment, and problems with plastered surfaces and painted walls that required repairs.

More recent records from January 2023 indicate these violations were finally certified as corrected, including additional issues with defective acoustic ceiling tiles and problems in the cellar's sheetrock ceiling. The second floor unit had documented violations from May 2001, including problems with bathroom wall surfaces, a defective window sash in the living room, and leaky faucets in the kitchen - all of which have been marked as corrected in 2023 records.

The building, constructed in 1930 and currently consisting of two stories, has been subject to numerous violations of the NYC Housing Maintenance Code over the years. While all documented violations from both units have been officially closed as of 2023, the history shows a pattern of maintenance issues predominantly affecting the first floor unit. The certification of correction in 2023 suggests that the owner has addressed these long-standing maintenance problems, though the extensive history of violations raises questions about the building's previous maintenance standards.
