115-29 Bedell Street, Queens, NY 11434

The two-family house at 115-29 Bedell Street in Jamaica, owned by Albert Basal, has a concerning history of rodent-related issues and pending violations spanning the past several years. Most notably, there have been multiple rodent inspections, with the most recent non-compliance recorded in October 2022, following initial inspections in August 2022 that also resulted in failure for other reasons. The property has three open violations from March 2018 regarding refuse accumulation and maintenance issues in the front, rear, and west yards that remain unresolved as of July 2025.

The building has experienced recurring signage-related problems, with complaints documented in both February and July 2020, though these were ultimately closed. While some inspections, including a rodent inspection in July 2020 and several others in 2018, resulted in passing grades, the overall pattern suggests ongoing maintenance challenges. Recent activity at the address includes a 2025 complaint regarding an inadequate fence, and a 2023 complaint about defective electrical wiring, though both were either resolved or found to have no substantiated violations.

A historical complaint from 2019 about an illegal conversion could not be verified due to access issues during inspection. The building's inspection history shows some passing grades in previous years, including rodent inspections in 2018 and July 2020, but the more recent patterns indicate persistent concerns that may affect resident comfort and health. The property has been subject to multiple agency inspections over the years, including from the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) and the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), indicating ongoing oversight from city agencies.
