16-11 Hancock Street, Queens, NY 11385
The two-story, four-unit building at 16-11 Hancock Street in Ridgewood, owned by Peggy Holloway, has experienced persistent pest management issues over the past several years. Most notably, there has been an ongoing rodent problem, with multiple inspections throughout 2023 and 2024 confirming rat activity, despite regular bait applications.
The property currently has open violations from 2023 and 2024 regarding annual bedbug report filing requirements, and a significant violation related to unsafe building maintenance involving a loose metal banister and concrete steps that has resulted in a $500 penalty. The building has faced several other maintenance challenges, including repeated issues with garbage/recycling storage resulting in violations in 2022, and multiple complaints regarding heat and hot water in late 2020.
A cluster of Housing Maintenance Code violations identified in 2020-2021 specifically documented issues in apartment 1R, including problems with mouse and roach infestations, a water leak in the bathroom ceiling, and required repairs to doors and plaster surfaces. While some historical complaints have been resolved, such as the 2020 heat/hot water issues which were reportedly fixed, the persistent nature of the rodent problems and current violations suggests ongoing maintenance challenges. The most recent building inspections in 2023-2024 have focused primarily on pest control measures, with multiple bait applications being conducted, including as recently as December 2024.
