381 Seneca Avenue, Queens, NY 11385
The two-story, four-unit tenement building at 381 Seneca Avenue in Ridgewood, owned by Angelo Messina, has experienced recurring heating issues in recent years, with emergency complaints in both December 2024 and June 2025 regarding heat and hot water problems.
HPD was unable to access the building to investigate the December 2024 complaint, leaving residents without confirmation of resolution. The building has a concerning pattern of violations related to bedbug reporting requirements, with violations issued in 2021, 2022, and most recently in March 2023, though subsequent reports from 2022-2025 show no confirmed infestations or eradication activity.
In terms of pest control, while the building passed rodent inspections in 2013, 2014, and 2017, two recent inspections in February and March 2024 both noted rat activity, marking a significant shift in rodent presence. The building's age (constructed in 1930) and these recurring issues suggest ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly regarding basic services and pest management.
