1734 Bleecker Street, Queens, NY 11385

1734 Bleecker Street is a 6-unit, 3-story New Law tenement building located in Ridgewood, built in 1930 and currently owned by Danny Moral. The building has experienced multiple maintenance issues in recent years, with the most significant cluster of complaints occurring between April and June 2025, including flooring problems, electrical issues (outlets/switches), wall paint/plaster concerns, and water leaks, with some violations issued regarding the latter two. The property has also faced recurring electrical problems, with documented complaints about no lighting in 2023, and previously in 2022.

Water-related issues appear to be a persistent problem, with violations noted in 2022 regarding leaks in both the bathroom and kitchen of apartment 1L. The building has several open violations on record as of August 2023, including requirements to properly maintain gas leak notices and housing information guide notices in the common areas. While the property had one documented instance of bedbug infestation in 2018-2019, subsequent reports from 2019 through 2024 showed no further infestations.

The building's rodent inspection records show mostly passing results from 2013-2025, though there were instances of rat activity in 2016 and some failures in 2013 that required bait application. More recently, there have been concerns about egress safety, with multiple complaints from 2020-2024 regarding locked/blocked exits, though inspections did not always find violations. The property currently has active violations related to failure to file external low-pressure inspections for several years (2018-2022), and there have been multiple illegal conversion complaints over the past several years, though inspectors were unable to gain access for verification.
