69-32 Myrtle Avenue, Queens, NY 11385

The 4-unit, 3-story building at 69-32 Myrtle Avenue in Glendale, owned by Salvatore Giresi, has experienced several maintenance issues over the past two years, with the most significant occurring in mid-2023. During June-July 2023, multiple violations were documented, including electrical problems with outlets/switches and an electric/gas range in Apartment 2F, various unsanitary conditions relating to garbage/recycling storage and pest control, and issues with walls requiring paint/plaster work.

The building has two open violations from 2024 and 2023: one regarding the filing of an annual bedbug report and another concerning rust removal and repainting requirements for balcony fire escape members. Prior to these issues, a 2019 complaint about defective/exposed electrical wiring was documented, though the inspector was unable to gain access to verify the condition. The property has had numerous HPD violations that have generally been addressed, including fixes to the kitchen range, medicine cabinet mirror, bathroom sink connections, and entrance door self-closing mechanism in Apartment 2F, which were resolved between July and August 2023.

The building's emergency situations in 2023 were typically addressed within days, although some non-emergency complaints took longer to resolve. The property underwent inspection and received violations related to unsanitary conditions, including pest issues, during mid-2023, with some inspections being unable to gain access to verify the reported conditions. While the bedbug reporting for the period from November 2021 to October 2022 showed no infestations, the requirement to file this report as of July 2023 remains an open violation.
