2026 Grove Street, Queens, NY 11385

2026 Grove Street is a two-story, three-unit residential building in Ridgewood, built in 1920 and currently owned by Jozef Zelazo. The building has undergone several significant changes in recent years, with its status officially listed as "HEREAFTER CONVERTED CLASS A," indicating a transition to regulated residential housing.

The building has maintained a consistent record of compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with the most recent filing in July 2025 showing no infested units, following a pattern of zero infestations in previous years (2020-2021, 2019-2020, 2018-2019). However, there is a notable history of bedbug-related violations, with four consecutive violations between 2021 and 2024 specifically regarding the filing of annual bedbug reports, though these appear to have been resolved as evidenced by the current clean status. The building has experienced two significant complaints in the past 5+ years - for work without a permit in 2021 and an alleged illegal conversion in 2019, though both were closed without violation warrants.

A rodent inspection conducted in June 2017 resulted in a passing grade. The consistent pattern of bedbug reporting violations between 2021 and 2024, while ultimately resolved, suggests some initial challenges with compliance, though this appears to have been rectified as of the most recent filing in 2025. The property's bedbug report history is particularly noteworthy, as it demonstrates thorough monitoring and reporting of pest conditions, with no recorded infestations in recent years, while the building's current status as a converted Class A property indicates its formal recognition as a regulated dwelling.
