67-45 79th Street, Queens, NY 11379

The three-unit, two-story residential building at 67-45 79th Street in Middle Village, owned by Rosa Rodriguez, has a documented history of building code compliance issues spanning several years, with the most recent concerns occurring in 2023.

In July 2023, the Department of Buildings responded to two significant complaints: one involving enforcement work that resulted in an Oath Violation being served, and another regarding an allegedly illegal curb cut or driveway/carport modification, which was referred to the Department of Transportation for further investigation. Looking back at 2020, there were two separate complaints within a week of each other regarding unauthorized work in the occupied multiple dwelling, though in both cases, inspectors were unable to gain access to the property during their inspections.

On a more positive note, the building has maintained a clean record with respect to bedbug infestations, with the most recent reporting period (November 2022 - October 2023) showing zero cases of infestation, eradication, or re-infestation in any dwelling units. While the building has experienced multiple building code enforcement issues in recent years, particularly in the summer of 2020 and mid-2023, the resolution of these complaints is reflected in their closed status, though the recent July 2023 violation may still warrant attention.
