1691 Grove Street, Queens, NY 11385
The three-story, 3-unit OLD LAW TENEMENT building at 1691 Grove Street in Ridgewood, currently owned by Chung Kit Cheung, has a concerning pattern of pest-related issues over recent years. Most notably, there are open Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2023 and 2024 regarding failure to file annual bedbug reports as required by HPD regulations.
These reports indicate no bedbug infestations during their respective filing periods (2019-2020 and 2020-2021), though the recurring violations suggest ongoing compliance challenges. The property has experienced significant rodent activity in early 2025, with rat sightings documented in January 2025 and confirmed rat activity in February 2025, following earlier inspections showing rodent issues as well.
A series of bait applications was conducted in mid-2024 (June to August), and while the building passed rodent inspections in September 2024 and February 2017, the recent uptick in rat activity and the need for ongoing bait applications indicate persistent challenges with vermin control at the property. The Department of Health and Mental Hygiene issued violations in January 2025 based on rodent sightings, necessitating follow-up inspections.
