1714 Summerfield Street, Queens, NY 11385

1714 Summerfield Street is a 7-unit, 3-story Class A residential building located in Ridgewood, constructed in 2015 and currently owned by Ridgewood Group 1714 LLC. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues, particularly affecting unit 1B, which has documented problems with mold, water leaks, and pest infestations. Most recently, in 2024, the building endured multiple pest-related complaints (July 2024) and a significant mold issue in 1B's bathroom ceiling requiring attention.

The building's infrastructure has faced challenges, including two power outages in 2024 and 2021, though both were determined not to have violations upon inspection. Notable building-wide issues include air quality concerns with sewage odors in October 2023 and a heating system failure in January 2021, which was reportedly resolved after inspection. The property has maintained a consistent record of bedbug control, with no reported infestations or eradications in the past four reporting periods from 2021 through 2025.

While the building underwent rodent inspections during its early years (2015-2017) showing initial rat activity, subsequent inspections resulted in passing grades. A 2023 complaint regarding the Certificate of Occupancy was closed due to the inspector's inability to gain access. Despite these various issues, many of the violations and complaints have been addressed and closed through inspections, though some ongoing concerns, particularly regarding moisture and pest control, have persisted over time.
