1893 Cornelia Street, Queens, NY 11385

The three-story, six-unit residential building at 1893 Cornelia Street in Ridgewood, owned by Ana Forlenza, was constructed in 1930 as a New Law tenement. The property has demonstrated consistent compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with all five consecutive annual reports filed between 2021 and 2025 showing zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested dwelling units. This indicates effective pest management practices by the current ownership.

The building has also maintained a clean record regarding rodent inspections, passing all three inspections conducted in 2016, 2017, and most recently in September 2024. The property had three consecutive DOHMH complaints related to unsanitary animal private property issues (specifically concerning dogs) in March-April 2021, with one of these incidents resulting in access issues for inspectors. However, these incidents appear to have been isolated events, and there have been no similar complaints recorded in the past two years.

Of note is a recurring Housing Maintenance Code violation in 2021, 2022, and 2023 related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports, though this appears to have been resolved as evidenced by the recent 2024 report showing compliance. While these administrative violations were significant when issued, they have been addressed through proper reporting in subsequent years. The building's historical data suggests generally good maintenance and compliance with health and safety requirements, particularly in recent years.
