68-01 Bell Boulevard, Queens, NY 11364

68-01 Bell Boulevard is a 197-unit, 2-story garden/maisonette-style building constructed in 1949, currently owned by Brian Sokoloff and located in the Bayside neighborhood. The building has experienced recurring issues with pest infestations, with the most recent complaints filed in June 2025, though HPD inspections found no violations in these cases.

Other recent maintenance concerns include window frame issues investigated in 2024, with no violations found, and multiple unsanitary conditions related to garbage/recycling storage. A significant construction project was noted in July 2024 involving facade work and scaffolding, with multiple active Environmental Control Board violations pending against Persi Contracting Corp, each carrying a $1,250 penalty. The building's maintenance history shows some persistent problems, including a water leak and plaster issues reported in May 2021, though inspectors could not gain access to investigate these complaints.

In 2019, there were multiple violations regarding unregistered gas-fired water boilers, though these were subsequently resolved. A rodent inspection conducted in February 2024 passed, indicating the building meets current pest control standards. The property has also experienced a power outage in 2021, which was classified as an immediate emergency but ultimately resulted in no violations.
