424 Ridgewood Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11208

The three-story, three-unit New Law Tenement at 424 Ridgewood Avenue in Cypress Hills, currently owned by Felix Rodriguez, has a documented history of regulatory compliance challenges, particularly regarding housing maintenance and safety requirements. Most notably, there has been a recurring issue with the annual bedbug reporting obligation, with violations noted in 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024, though the most recent report filed in May 2024 covered the period from November 2022 to October 2023 shows no infestation (with 0 infested, eradicated, or re-infested units).

The building has also experienced persistent citation for failing to properly maintain required safety signage and notices, particularly in 2019 and 2021, including the building registration sign, inspection certificate frame near mailboxes, and notices regarding smoke detector and carbon monoxide detector requirements. As of the most recent data in 2023 and 2024, the building appears to have addressed many of its earlier violations, with most being closed.

The only remaining open violation from November 2021 pertains to the building registration sign, though this may have been resolved given the passage of time. Additionally, the property has a long-unblemished record regarding rodent inspections, with a passing result recorded in March 2012. The building's age (constructed in 1901) and its status as a New Law Tenement suggest it is subject to specific regulatory requirements that have occasionally resulted in compliance challenges, though recent bedbug reporting appears to have stabilized.
