87-21 Dumont Avenue, Queens, NY 11417

The two-story, six-unit residential building at 87-21 Dumont Avenue in Ozone Park, owned by Lawrence Bernstein, has maintained a generally positive record since its construction in 1977. The property has consistently submitted its annual bedbug reports from 2019 through mid-2025, with the most recent report showing zero infested or eradicated units from November 2023 to October 2024.

Notably, there was only one documented incident of bedbug activity in the 2017-2018 reporting period when two units were affected, but this appears to have been successfully contained, as subsequent reports show no further infestations. The building currently holds active violations with the Department of Buildings (DOB) related to external low-pressure system inspections, with a violation issued in June 2023 for failing to file the 2021 inspection results. A previous violation from April 2023 was dismissed in October 2023.

Of particular note, the property has received Housing Maintenance Code violations in both 2022 and 2024 regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports, despite the records showing consistent filings. These violations were marked as "Close," though it's unclear if they were formally addressed through any penalty or correction process. While the building has experienced some administrative compliance issues, particularly regarding inspection filings, the lack of any reported bedbug infestations since 2018 and consistent reporting practices suggest effective pest management overall.
