57-21 Catalpa Avenue, Queens, NY 11385
The three-unit residential building at 57-21 Catalpa Avenue in Ridgewood, owned by Cesar Barrera, is a 3-story New Law Tenement constructed in 1913.
The property has consistently maintained rodent control standards, successfully passing all inspections since 2014, with the most recent inspection in September 2024 also yielding a passing result. However, a significant and persistent issue has emerged regarding bedbug reporting compliance; the building has received four consecutive Housing Maintenance Code violations between 2021 and 2024 (most recently in April 2024) for failing to file the required annual bedbug reports with the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), as mandated by § HMC.
These violations, while classified as "Class A" indicating serious nature, do not directly imply an active infestation but rather administrative noncompliance with reporting requirements. The building's rodent control track record contrasts with this compliance issue, as all rodent inspections conducted since 2013 (with one initial failure in 2013) have been passed, suggesting generally proactive maintenance in other areas.
