59-22 Catalpa Avenue, Queens, NY 11385

The three-story, three-unit residential building at 59-22 Catalpa Avenue in Ridgewood, owned by Thomas Rom, has maintained a solid record of tenant safety and building maintenance since its construction in 1909 as a New Law Tenement property. Most notably, the building has demonstrated consistent vigilance in bedbug management, having submitted five consecutive annual bedbug reports from 2019 to 2024, with each report showing zero infested dwelling units, zero eradicated units, and zero re-infested units, indicating effective pest management practices.

The only housing maintenance code violation on record was in March 2023, concerning the filing of the annual bedbug report, but this appears to have been promptly addressed, as the subsequent report for 2024 was filed and showed consistent compliance with the reporting requirements. The building's maintenance history also includes a successful rodent inspection in April 2017, which passed without incident.

The property's documented history over the past several years suggests diligent management and prompt response to regulatory requirements, with no reported recurring issues or patterns that would detrimentally impact resident quality of life. The most recent bedbug report filing in March 2024 from the prior November-October reporting period continued the building's pattern of effective pest management, with no documented infestations during the period covered by the report.
