- City records show 2 open HPD violations at this building. Ask which are still unresolved in the unit and the landlord’s timeline to clear them.
- The oldest open violation on record dates to 2017 — why has it stayed open this long, and is it in or near this unit?
- DHCR’s most recent registration lists 152 rent-stabilized units here. Ask whether this specific unit is one of them, and ask the landlord for its legal regulated rent and lease history.
- Confirm the condition behind the most recent open violation was actually repaired, not just marked closed: Repair the broken or defective plastered surfaces and paint in a uniform color west wall.
16-70 Bell Boulevard sits in Queens, ZIP 11360. No subway stations are within an 800-meter walk — expect to rely on buses or rideshare.
Building Condition
On record since February 2017. HPD marks a violation open until it is certified as corrected, so an old date can mean an unresolved condition or a repair that was never certified.

No HPD lead-paint violations on record. Built 1973. For buildings built between 1960 and 1978, Local Law 1 applies where the owner knows lead-based paint is present — there is no automatic pre-1960 presumption. Lead paint in residential use was federally banned in 1978.
