7 St Johns Road, Queens, NY 11385

This two-story, four-unit tenement building at 7 St Johns Road in Ridgewood, owned by Magdalena Perka, was constructed in 1915 and has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, there has been an ongoing rodent problem, with regular bait application continuing from October 2023 through August 2024, suggesting persistent infestations. The building underwent an inspection in September 2023 which revealed multiple safety compliance issues: while some violations were subsequently closed by October 2023, three remain open as of now.

These include failures to properly post necessary safety information regarding carbon monoxide detectors, as well as required notices about the heating system keyholder. The building's front entrance door at the public hall was found to be missing or defective, constituting a Class C violation. Recent complaints have included reports of unsanitary garbage/recycling storage (July 2023) and rodent sightings (July 2023), though both were closed without violations being cited.

The building's bedbug reporting history is notably clean, with no infested units reported in the past five consecutive filings from 2019 to 2025. Subsequent to the September 2023 inspection, the building complied with several requirements by posting various required safety notices, including those related to smoke detectors, building registration numbers, and gas leak procedures. The property has maintained regular inspections and reporting for bedbug monitoring, consistently showing no infestations.
