1824 George Street, Queens, NY 11385

1824 George Street is a 3-story, 6-unit "New Law Tenement" building located in Ridgewood, Queens, owned by Niculae Baciu and constructed in 1931. The building has experienced persistent pest management challenges over the past several years, with documented rat activity in multiple inspections between 2021 and 2022, though the most recent rodent control activity in November 2022 involved bait application.

The property has also faced multiple housing maintenance code violations, particularly in 2019, when various citations were issued including the need for window guard repairs and replacements in apartment 2L, addressing unsanitary conditions, and the requirement to post carbon monoxide detection device requirements in common areas. A significant pest-related incident occurred in February 2019 when the HPD received complaints about unsanitary conditions related to pests. Since then, however, there have been no recorded bedbug infestations, with the most recent bedbug reports from 2024 showing zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units, indicating successful management of this particular issue.

The building's most recent housing maintenance code violation, issued in April 2024, pertains to the requirement to file an annual bedbug report, though this appears to have been rectified promptly as there have been no subsequent violations recorded through the current date. The property has historically demonstrated some maintenance deficiencies in its common areas, including the need for proper posting of safety notices regarding gas leaks and carbon monoxide detectors, though many of these issues were resolved promptly following inspection. While the building has experienced several maintenance challenges, particularly during 2019, recent records indicate improved conditions with no active violations as of October 2023.
