815 Woodward Avenue, Queens, NY 11385

The three-story residential building at 815 Woodward Avenue in Ridgewood, owned by Yidi Li, has experienced notable pest-related issues over the past few years. Most recently, there have been multiple rodent-related incidents throughout 2023, with the most recent inspection in October 2023 showing a passing result, though earlier inspections in March and February 2023 documented rat activity.

The building has also faced recurring violations regarding bedbug reporting requirements, with four consecutive violations from 2021 to 2024 related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as mandated under Housing Maintenance Code. However, the official bedbug reports from 2021-2023 show no recorded infestations, with 0 infested dwelling units, 0 eradicated units, and 0 re-infested units reported for both the 2021-2022 and 2022-2023 filing periods. The building's compliance history shows a pattern of fluctuating pest-related issues, with several inspections passing but also revealing rodent activity at various times.

A complaint was filed in October 2023 regarding illegal commercial/manufacturing use in a residential zone at 11385 (likely referring to a neighboring property, as this is not the building's address), though the inspector was unable to gain access for verification. A significant improvement is noted in recent interactions with the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, as the most recent rodent inspection in October 2023 resulted in a passing grade, contrasting with earlier 2023 inspections that documented rat activity. While the building has maintained passing inspections in some areas, the recurring nature of both rodent and bedbug-related issues suggests ongoing challenges with pest management, though the official bedbug reporting indicates no current infestation problems.
