1674 Woodbine Street, Queens, NY 11385

The three-story, six-unit tenement building at 1674 Woodbine Street in Ridgewood, currently owned by Celina Wojcicha, has experienced ongoing maintenance challenges since 2024. The building, constructed in 1930, has been the subject of multiple housing maintenance code complaints and violations, with particular issues emerging in apartment 1R. As of March 2025, the property has registered multiple complaints regarding water leaks, mold, and pest infestations, though inspections generally found no violations.

Significant problems were documented in 2024, including persistent pest issues (roaches), water leaks, and various repair needs in apartment 1R, such as defective plastered surfaces and ceiling damage. The building's maintenance record shows four active violations related to external low pressure inspections that have not been filed since 2018, representing a potentially significant safety concern. Recent inspections of the property, including rodent inspections, have shown fluctuating results. While the most recent rodent inspection in April 2025 passed, earlier inspections in 2023 (November and July) recorded rat activity, and 2019 noted a failure for other reasons.

The building has had multiple HPD and 311 service requests in 2025 alone, involving issues such as water leaks, mold, and various unsanitary conditions. Though many of these complaints were closed without violations being issued, the frequency and nature of the issues suggest ongoing maintenance and habitability concerns. A July 2024 inspection resulted in multiple violations with certified correction dates in August 2024, including problems with water leaks, pest infestations, and various maintenance issues. The building's record also shows service requests related to multiple other maintenance categories, including electrical lighting, paint/plaster work, and flooring, particularly during the 2024-2025 period.
