775 Seneca Avenue, Queens, NY 11385

The three-story, five-unit tenement building at 775 Seneca Avenue in Ridgewood, built in 1930 and currently owned by Sanije Capri, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over recent years, particularly related to water and plumbing systems. Most notably, in December 2023, the building received multiple emergency complaints and violations concerning water leaks, including problems with steam pipes, radiators, and damp spots affecting apartment 2L.

These violations appear to be part of an ongoing maintenance challenge, as there had been a similar water leak complaint in September 2022, though that case was closed without violations. Additionally, there are multiple open violations from December 2023 regarding water leak repairs and ceiling maintenance in apartment 2L, and a violation concerning a non-self-closing entrance door at the first floor. The building has a documented history of rodent activity, with the most recent inspections in 2024 showing rat activity, though there was a period of successful bait application in 2017.

While the property maintains a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with all three annual reports from 2021-2025 showing zero infested units, it is noteworthy that the building did not file its required 2019 Low Pressure Inspection report, resulting in an active violation from June 2023. The property has experienced intermittent maintenance issues in the past, including paint and plaster concerns, though many recent complaints have been resolved without violations. The building's maintenance history suggests ongoing challenges with water systems and periodic rodent issues, but no current infestations of bedbugs or Other pests.
