1622 Summerfield Street, Queens, NY 11385

1622 Summerfield Street, a 2-story New Law Tenement building constructed in 1931 in Ridgewood, currently managed by owner Duvi Brunner, has experienced persistent pest management challenges over the past few years. Most notably, the property has undergone regular rodent-related interventions between 2022 and 2025, with multiple inspections revealing rat activity in 2022 and several rodent condition complaints continuing into 2025. While recent inspections in April 2025 showed compliance, earlier inspections had documented violations requiring follow-up actions, particularly in January 2025.

The building's sanitation history shows periodic issues with garbage and recycling storage, with an investigation by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development in August 2024, though no violations were found at that time. The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations since the 2019-2020 period, with all subsequent annual reports from 2021 through 2024 showing zero infested units. Other maintenance concerns have been relatively minimal, with documented issues including a plumbing emergency in December 2022 and a ventilation system complaint in January 2023, both of which were resolved.

More recently, in June 2025, there was a complaint about mosquitoes that was addressed by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene. While the building has faced ongoing challenges with rodent conditions and sanitation matters, periodic inspections have generally resulted in passing grades, indicating some level of responsive management to maintenance concerns. The most recent inspections and service requests suggest that while pest management continues to be a concern, recent months have shown fewer documented violations compared to earlier periods.
