97-29 98th Street, Queens, NY 11416

The three-story, two-family house at 97-29 98th Street in Ozone Park, owned by Maria Rescigno and constructed in 2004, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past five years.

Most notably, in June 2024, the building had multiple emergency housing maintenance code complaints addressed within the same week, including issues with mold, several door problems, and an electric/gas range appliance concern. The building's history also reveals persistent moisture and hygiene challenges, dating back to March 2020 when both water leak and mold complaints were filed with the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), though inspectors were unable to gain access to verify the conditions at that time.

A separate dog-related complaint regarding unsanitary conditions on private property was recorded with the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) in March 2020, which remains in progress according to the available data. While the building has been able to address some issues through official channels, the recurring nature of water-related problems and unsanitary conditions suggests ongoing maintenance challenges that have required attention from multiple city agencies over the past five years.
