Augrented Insights Report for 59-28 Putnam Avenue

The 6-unit, 3-story New Law Tenement building at 59-28 Putnam Avenue in Ridgewood, owned by Ruckus Realty LLC, has had several significant maintenance issues over the past few years, particularly focusing on its second-floor unit (2R) where multiple violations were documented in December 2019. These violations included problems with electrical outlets, flooring (both in general and specifically in the bathroom shower stall), safety equipment (missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors), a door lock issue, and a mouse infestation, all of which were officially closed by March 2020 following repairs.

The building has also faced regulatory compliance challenges, with active violations recorded in 2023 for failure to file the 2018 external low-pressure inspection and a previously dismissed violation from 2019 involving the 2017 boiler inspection report, for which a $1,000 penalty was paid. More recent history shows consistent monitoring for bedbugs, with annual reports from 2019 to 2025 showing zero infestation or re-infestation cases, indicating effective pest management.

A rodent inspection conducted in June 2017 passed, though this predates the more recent 2019 mouse infestation issue. The most recent departmental activity includes a 2022 complaint about work without a permit in an occupied multiple dwelling, which was found to have no warrant for violation at the time of inspection.
