554 Woodward Avenue, Queens, NY 11385

The three-story, three-unit residential building at 554 Woodward Avenue in Ridgewood, owned by Edgar Chalco and constructed in 1920, has consistently demonstrated challenges with compliance to the New York City Housing Maintenance Code's bedbug reporting requirements over the past four years. Between 2021 and 2024, the building received four consecutive violations for failing to file the mandatory annual bedbug reports, all of which remain open as of the most recent inspection in April 2024.

These recurring violations suggest an ongoing oversight or compliance issue regarding pest management protocols at the property. In contrast, the building has maintained a successful track record in rodent control, having passed three inspections conducted in 2016, 2017, and most recently in September 2024.

This consistent compliance with rodent control measures indicates attention to certain aspects of building maintenance, even as challenges persist with bedbug reporting requirements. The significant time lapse between the last known rodent inspection (September 2024) and the most recent bedbug reporting violation (April 2024) is notable, as it represents a potential improvement in pest management efforts, though the open violation status should be carefully considered.
