Augrented Insights Report for 717 Seneca Avenue

717 Seneca Avenue is a 3-story, 6-unit New Law Tenement building located in Ridgewood, built in 1930 and currently owned by Ani Minnetyan. The property has experienced numerous maintenance issues in the past year, with significant clusters of complaints between August 2024 and March 2025. Most notably, there is an ongoing rodent infestation problem, with inspection results from April 2025 and multiple previous inspections showing rat activity.

Housing Maintenance Code violations remain open as of September 2024 regarding rodent and roach infestations in Apartment 1L on the first floor, along with several other outstanding violations related to sanitation and maintenance. From January 2025 alone, the building received multiple emergency complaints and violations, including issues with heat/hot water, door problems, flooring concerns, mold, cabinets, plumbing, and ceiling surfaces. An immediate emergency complaint in January 2025 related to ceiling plaster/paint and multiple violations regarding floor conditions suggest significant maintenance challenges.

The building's heating system has been a recurring issue, with complaints in both August 2024 and February 2025. While the building has not reported any bedbug infestations in the past five years (2020-2025), two active Department of Buildings violations regarding failure to file external low-pressure inspections from 2023 and 2024 remain unresolved. The property has undergone regular rodent inspections through 2025, with results consistently showing rat activity, though some compliance inspections have passed, and bait was applied during targeted pest control efforts in 2022.
