211-28 45th Road, Queens, NY 11361

The 4-unit, 3-story residential building at 211-28 45th Road in Bayside, owned by Linda Casagrande, was constructed in 1920 and has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past several years. The most recent significant cluster of complaints occurred in August 2022, when the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) received multiple reports including unsanitary conditions related to pests, problems with doors and windows, and issues with paint and plaster on walls and ceilings.

These complaints were all closed due to HPD's inability to gain access for inspection. The building also shows a pattern of similar issues, with multiple door/window and pests-related complaints documented in April 2019 and 2019, including emergency violations. While the building had violations regarding annual bedbug reporting requirements between 2021 and 2024, the most recent bedbug report filed in July 2025 shows no current infestations or eradications.

The property underwent inspections in 2014 for rodent presence, with initial inspection results showing failure for "other reasons," though a subsequent compliance inspection passed. Despite these historical issues, the current bedbug-free status represents a positive development for the building's maintenance record. However, it's important to note that many past complaints have been resolved through HPD's standard procedure of closing cases when access for inspection is not granted, rather than through direct resolution of reported issues.
