1669 Cornelia Street, Queens, NY 11385

The 6-unit, 3-story New Law Tenement at 1669 Cornelia Street in Ridgewood, built in 1931 and currently owned by Isidore Miller, has maintained generally good living conditions over the past several years, though there are some notable concerns. The building has demonstrated consistent compliance with bedbug reporting requirements from 2019 through 2024, with all reports indicating zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units during the reporting periods.

However, there has been a concerning pattern of rat activity recently, with inspections in September 2024 and August 2023 showing rodent presence, though the most recent inspection on October 31, 2024 resulted in a passed compliance status. The building's history shows two significant safety-related violations in recent years: a 2022 violation regarding the timely filing of the annual bedbug report (which appears to have been resolved) and a 2018 violation concerning gas leak notification procedures (which was certified as corrected within a month).

There have also been two building permit-related complaints in May 2020, though no violations were found upon inspection. Regular rodent inspections from 2017 to 2022 had generally passed, with the first indication of rat activity not occurring until July 2023. While the building has generally maintained good compliance with health and safety regulations, the recent rodent presence and the bedbug reporting violation in 2022 are notable concerns for residents, despite successful mitigation of bedbug issues in subsequent years.
