59-03 Madison Street, Queens, NY 11385

The three-unit, three-story building at 59-03 Madison Street in Ridgewood, owned by Piotr Kuklik, has experienced a series of maintenance and health-related issues over the past two years, with the most significant problems occurring in 2023. The building, which was constructed in 1930 and is currently classified as a Converted Class A building, has documented multiple complaints regarding appliance issues, including non-functioning electric/gas ranges and refrigerators, with several of these complaints resulting in HPD violations. April 2023 was particularly problematic, with violations issued for electric wiring concerns, unsanitary conditions related to pests, and issues with garbage/recycling storage.

Two separate rodent-related complaints were filed, one in April 2023 and another in May 2024, with the latter specifically documented as a rat sighting. While most complaints have been closed, several were closed due to lack of access for inspection, including reports of unsanitary conditions and wall paint/plaster issues in March- April 2023 and September 2023. The building's documented issues suggest ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly regarding appliance functionality and pest control.

The most recent rat sighting complaint from May 2024 indicates that rodent issues may still be a concern, though this appears to be the most recent complaint on record. Overall, the building has experienced multiple health and safety-related incidents over the past two years, with a pattern of unsanitary conditions and appliance-related problems. While some violations have been addressed and closed, the frequency and nature of these complaints suggest that maintenance and habitability concerns have been a persistent issue at this address.
