1922 Bleecker Street, Queens, NY 11385

The 2-story, 3-unit residential building at 1922 Bleecker Street in Ridgewood, owned by Elizabeth Ferranti, has a notable history of pest-related issues over the past several years. The property, a 1910 Old Law Tenement building, has been under a recurring pattern of rat sightings and rodent control measures, with multiple 311 complaints recorded between 2021 and 2022.

In February 2022 alone, there were multiple rat sighting complaints that resulted in bait application inspections by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, though a February 2022 compliance inspection did show passing results. The building has also faced challenges with bedbug reporting compliance, as evidenced by four consecutive open violations from 2021 through 2024 related to failure to file the required annual bedbug reports, which carry class A violation status.

The property's rodent control history reveals a mix of compliance and violations, with bait being applied during multiple inspection visits in early 2022 and some inspections showing rat activity in 2021. The most recent inspection records indicate ongoing issues, with April 2024 showing an open violation regarding bedbug reporting requirements. While the building has achieved passing results in some inspections, particularly in 2017, the persistent nature of both the rodent and bedbug reporting issues suggests ongoing challenges with pest management and compliance at this location.
