18-87 Troutman Street, Queens, NY 11385

This three-story, six-unit residential building located at 18-87 Troutman Street in Ridgewood was built in 1930 and is currently owned by Dariusz Zolopa. The property has experienced recurring moisture-related issues, with multiple reports of water leaks and mold between 2018 and 2019, including slow leaks and damp spots that resulted in at least one violation.

Significant safety and maintenance concerns emerged in 2019, including an open incident regarding lead-based paint hazards in the third-floor bathroom and various life-safety violations related to carbon monoxide detection requirements, gas leak procedures, and a blocked fire escape. While violations for annual bedbug reporting requirements were issued between 2020 and 2024, recent filings show no bedbug infestations or eradication efforts in the past three years. The building's mechanical systems have also presented challenges, with complaints about an inoperative boiler in 2020 and violations for failed boiler inspection filings in 2019 and 2023 remaining active.

The property underwent several housing maintenance inspections, with most recent violations showing a lack of compliance with required notifications and safety systems. Notably, the building has maintained a pest management record showing no bedbug infestations since 2019, and rodent inspections have gradually improved from initial failures in 2009-2010 to recent pass results. The most recent building inspections and service requests suggest some ongoing maintenance issues, particularly regarding water-related problems, though many historical violations have been addressed and closed.
