Augrented Insights Report for 1821 Putnam Avenue

This three-story, six-unit New Law Tenement building located at 1821 Putnam Avenue in Ridgewood, owned by Tricia Ramdahinsmall and constructed in 1913, has experienced several concerning maintenance issues in recent years. Most significantly, there has been a persistent pattern of pest-related complaints, with multiple reports of unsanitary conditions involving both garbage/recycling storage and pests in 2025 alone, resulting in violations being issued by HPD. The building also faces ongoing rodent issues, with inspections in 2025 showing rat activity, despite previous compliance passes in 2024.

There is a concerning history of heat and hot water problems documented between late 2019 and early 2020, affecting multiple apartments and requiring emergency responses, though most were eventually resolved. The building's maintenance record shows three active DOB violations as of 2023-2024 related to external low-pressure inspections, and there have been multiple recent complaints regarding potential illegal hotel room usage and occupancy issues, though inspections were unable to gain access. The property has a documented history of maintenance violations and complaints dating back several years, including a significant window guard safety violation in 2020 (Class C), and a water leak issue from 2018 that was not able to be inspected.

While the building's bedbug report filings from 2019, 2023, and 2024 indicate no infestation during those periods, the property has shown recurring issues with compliance to housing codes. Notably, between 2018 and 2022, there were multiple complaints about illegal hotel room usage and occupancy violations, though many inspections were unable to complete due to access issues. The building's management has received violations regarding the filing of annual bedbug reports in 2020 and has accumulated penalties related to occupancy violations, including a resolved $3,125 penalty in 2018. While the most recent bedbug reports show no current infestations, the property continues to face recurring pest and sanitation challenges, as evidenced by multiple recent HPD violations.
