17-07 Himrod Street is a 6-unit, 3-story New Law Tenement building located in Ridgewood, Queens and owned by Eric Setton. The property, constructed in 1930, has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past several years, with particularly notable problems emerging in the indoor environment and building systems. Most recently, in October 2024, there was an unsanitary condition complaint regarding pests that HPD was unable to inspect.
Throughout 2023-2025, significant concerns have included heat and hot water outages affecting the entire building (2023 & 2024), mold issues (2023), water leaks with violations noted (2023), and multiple instances of pest infestations. The building faced five bedbug infestations between 2018-2022, though recent reports from 2022-2025 indicate no current infestations. Housing Maintenance Code violations remain open as of October 2023, specifically concerning door repairs needed in Apartment 2R, while other violations from 2021-2022 involve electrical, plumbing, and safety matters including broken outlets, sink issues, and the condition of common areas. The building's systems have shown persistent challenges, evidenced by multiple complaints regarding heating systems, water issues, and electrical problems between 2021 and 2024.
Although some violations have been addressed and closed, such as those related to an electric/gas range and unsanitary conditions in 2021, several remain open. The property has undergone regular rodent inspections with varying results, including instances of rat activity in 2012, though more recent inspections in 2021 and 2017 passed. Inspection records from 2018-2022 show no violations during several audits, but open violations as of 2023 indicate ongoing maintenance needs. The building has received attention from both the Department of Buildings and HPD, with complaints regarding various building systems and maintenance issues being addressed through inspections and violation notices.
