1671 Woodbine Street, Queens, NY 11385

The three-story, six-unit "New Law Tenement" building at 1671 Woodbine Street in Ridgewood, owned by Edward Bercarich and built in 1930, has experienced several notable maintenance issues over recent years. Most significantly, in early 2022, there were complaints regarding lack of heat and hot water affecting the entire building, though these issues were reportedly resolved within a day.

Additionally, early 2022 saw a rodent sighting that resulted in violations, representing one of the few periods of pest issues in a generally clean record. A different type of violation emerged in mid-2023 concerning the failure to file a required external low-pressure inspection, though this was ultimately dismissed by August 2023. The building has maintained an impressive record regarding bedbugs, with all annual filings from 2019 through 2025 showing zero infested or eradicated units.

Similarly, rodent inspections since 2019 have generally passed, with only one instance of rat activity noted in February 2022, which was subsequently addressed through compliance inspections that passed in April 2022. The most recent inspections in 2023 and 2024 also passed, with an inspection conducted in September 2024 showing no current rodent issues. While the building has experienced some maintenance challenges, particularly in 2022, the situation appears to have stabilized, with no recurring heat/water problems or significant pest issues reported in the past two years.
