59-18 Catalpa Avenue, Queens, NY 11385
The 3-unit, 3-story tenement building at 59-18 Catalpa Avenue in Ridgewood, owned by Jelena Draguca, has experienced persistent regulatory challenges over the past several years.
Most notably, there has been an ongoing failure to comply with mandatory annual bedbug reporting requirements under the Housing Maintenance Code, with open violations documented in 2021, 2022, 2023, and most recently in April 2024. These repeated violations suggest a pattern of noncompliance with basic building health and safety requirements.
The building does have some positive maintenance history, including a passed rodent inspection in April 2017, though this is now several years old (over eight years as of 2025) and does not directly address the current bedbug reporting deficiencies. The property, constructed in 1909, is classified as a New Law Tenement, which typically refers to buildings subject to specific rent regulation and housing maintenance requirements under New York City law.
