1736 Norman Street, Queens, NY 11385

The three-story, three-unit tenement building at 1736 Norman Street in Ridgewood, owned by Julio Puma, has experienced recurring issues with compliance to housing maintenance codes over the past several years. Most notably, there is an ongoing pattern of violations related to the annual bedbug report filing requirement under § HMC, with open violations recorded in 2024, 2023, 2022, and 2021.

These violations indicate a consistent failure to comply with reporting requirements as mandated by HPD, though it's important to note that these violations pertain to administrative compliance rather than direct health or safety concerns. The building's rodent inspection history shows a mix of outcomes, with the most recent inspection in 2017 passing successfully.

Prior to that, there was one instance of rat activity reported in March 2012, followed by a compliance inspection in April 2012 that passed. Other inspections in 2011 also resulted in passing grades. While the building is now over 100 years old, having been constructed in 1920, it has maintained regulatory compliance in several areas, though the persistent bedbug report violation pattern over multiple years suggests some challenges with regulatory adherence.
