Augrented Insights Report for 1645 Putnam Avenue

The 6-unit, 3-story New Law Tenement building at 1645 Putnam Avenue in Ridgewood, built in 1931 and currently owned by Myer Worch, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues over recent years. The property has been dealing with persistent pest control challenges, particularly regarding rodent activity, with multiple inspections between 2019 and 2024 consistently showing evidence of rats, though recent rodent inspections in 2024-2025 have shown irregularity in results, with some showing compliance and others confirming rat activity. The building faced serious maintenance challenges in 2024, including multiple violations related to self-closing doors throughout the building (public hall and roof access), which were classified as Class B and C violations.

Other notable 2024 violations involved safety concerns such as defective window frames in apartment 1R, ceiling issues in the cellar, and various maintenance needs in apartment 1L, including problems with carbon monoxide detectors, bathtub cleanliness, and kitchen flooring. The building's recent history shows an ongoing struggle with basic maintenance requirements, as evidenced by multiple HPD complaints throughout 2025, including unsanitary conditions and appliance issues. In addition, there were several emergency complaints in April 2024 regarding plumbing, fire escape, and window problems.

The Department of Buildings has conducted investigations into possible illegal conversions of the property in 2023, though inspectors were unable to gain access on final attempts. Historical records from 2019 also indicate past structural concerns, including reports of building shaking. While the property shows no recent bedbug infestation reports (with consistent reports of zero infested units from 2019 through 2024), the persistent rodent activity and recurring maintenance violations suggest ongoing challenges in basic building upkeep and compliance with housing maintenance codes.
