1680 Gates Avenue, Queens, NY 11385

The 6-unit, 3-story New Law tenement building at 1680 Gates Avenue in Ridgewood, owned by Boris Girtz, has been standing since 1930 and presents a mixed record of maintenance and resident services. The building experienced two heating system-related complaints in late 2018 and late 2019, both involving the entire building, though the 2018 incident was inspected without violations and the 2019 incident was closed without inspections due to access issues.

Importantly, the building has maintained a 100% clean record in terms of bedbug infestations from 2019 through 2024, with no reported cases of infestation, eradication, or re-infestation in any of the five consecutive annual reports. The property has also been subject to regular rodent inspections, with the most recent inspections showing generally satisfactory results.

While most inspections resulted in passing marks, there was a notable instance of "Rat Activity" recorded in July 2023, though this was followed by a "Passed" result in September 2024. The building's overall compliance history shows a pattern of attention to pest management, with inspections conducted regularly since 2018. The heating system issues from 2018 and 2019 represent the most significant resident service concerns on record, though no similar complaints have been filed in recent years.
