1716 Putnam Avenue, Queens, NY 11385
1716 Putnam Avenue is a three-story, six-unit residential building in Ridgewood, built in 1930 and currently owned by Tamer Tamer. The building has experienced several recurring compliance issues, with the most recent concerns focusing on garbage/recycling storage, for which a complaint was lodged in March 2024 and investigated by HPD in April 2024, though no violations were ultimately issued.
The property has a documented pattern of failing to submit required annual bedbug reports, with violations issued in 2021, 2022, and 2023 specifically citing failures to file as required under § HMC. However, the most recent bedbug report for the period ending October 2024 indicates no infested units, though it should be noted that previous filings from 2023-2024, 2022-2023, and 2021-2022 all reported zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units.
The building's rodent inspection history shows intermittent challenges, with the most recent inspections in 2024 showing rat activity in September 2024, though a compliance inspection in November 2024 resulted in a passing grade. Between 2014 and 2024, the building has had multiple rodent inspections, with significant attention paid to compliance requirements, including a dismissal of a $1,000 fine related to an annual boiler inspection report not being filed for 2017 in late 2019. While the building has maintained regular communication with HPD regarding pest control and waste management, the pattern of repeated violations and missed deadlines suggests ongoing challenges with compliance to housing maintenance requirements, though recent inspections indicate some improvements in overall conditions.
