72-21 67th Street, Queens, NY 11385

The 16-unit, 4-story tenement building at 72-21 67th Street in Glendale, built in 1929 and currently owned by Wagbaer Realty LLC, has experienced several maintenance issues over the past few years, though conditions have improved recently. Most notably, there were multiple heat and hot water complaints in late 2024, with two emergency complaints in December 2024 affecting the entire building.

Two significant issues remain as of mid-2025: violations for failure to file external low pressure inspections for 2020 and 2021, and an open violation from January 2024 regarding access to the building's heating system. In December 2023, multiple violations were issued regarding defective self-closing doors in several apartments (2B, 3A, 4B, 4C) and common areas, though some of these violations were subsequently closed in February 2024. The building has had recurring pest-related complaints in late 2023 and early 2024, though no violations were issued, and there have been multiple paint/plaster complaints in 2022-2023, with at least one resulting in violations.

On a positive note, recent bedbug reports from 2021 to 2025 indicate zero infestations or eradications, suggesting effective pest management. The property has maintained a regular schedule of 311 service calls, with the most recent being a general complaint about the intercom system in February 2025, which could not be inspected. While the building has experienced various maintenance challenges, many historical complaints have been resolved, and the absence of recent bedbug issues is notable.
