The four-story New Law Tenement building at 1071 Cypress Avenue in Ridgewood, owned by Liz Rodriguez, has experienced persistent maintenance and safety issues over the past several years. Most recently, in June 2025, there were multiple complaints regarding heat and hot water, door/window problems, and unsanitary conditions including mold, with some violations issued. The building has a history of plumbing issues, as evidenced by multiple complaints in early 2025 regarding bathtubs/showers and toilets, though inspectors were unable to gain access during these inspections.
Previous violations include rodent infestations in multiple apartments (1D, 4A, 10C) documented in late 2024, along with issues related to window guards and bell/buzzer systems. The building's heating system has been a recurring concern, with multiple heat/hot water complaints in recent years, including a significant incident in January 2025 affecting the entire building. The property has several active violations related to building systems and safety requirements, including multiple unfiled benchmarking reports and external low-pressure inspections between 2022 and 2024.
Additionally, there are two active Environmental Control Board violations from 2021 regarding improper conditions in the boiler room and an unregistered burner, with significant penalties attached. The building's electrical wiring systems have been under scrutiny, with multiple complaints recorded in 2018, though inspections found no violations at that time. While there have been no recent bedbug infestations reported, there have been ongoing rodent control efforts, with rodent activity noted in 2025 inspections. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of recurring issues, particularly related to heating systems, plumbing, and pest control, with violations remaining open as of the most recent inspection records.
