17-15 Linden Street, Queens, NY 11385
The three-story, New Law Tenement building at 17-15 Linden Street in Ridgewood, owned by Iwona Charkow, was constructed in 1930 and contains 6 residential units. The property has experienced recurring rodent issues, with multiple rat sightings reported in 2024 (July, August, and most recently in September) leading to official inspections confirming rat activity in September and October 2024.
The building has a documented history of heat and hot water problems, with emergencies reported in both 2020 and 2022, though one of the 2020 incidents was resolved upon verification of corrections. Pests have been an ongoing concern, with violations recorded in 2018-2019 and 2019-2020 inspections, though no violations were found during the 2019 inspection. The building currently has several open violations from a January 2022 inspection that require attention, specifically regarding emergency and safety notifications that need to be posted in common areas.
These include requirements for carbon monoxide detector notices, gas leak procedures, heating system access information, and smoke detector requirements. Although the most recent bedbug report filed in December 2024 for the period 2023-2024 shows no infested or re-infested units, the building has had prior bedbug reporting requirements from 2022-2024. Remarkably, building inspections from 2012 through 2017 had consistently shown no rat activity, suggesting a recent deterioration in pest management.
