1033 Seneca Avenue, Queens, NY 11385

1033 Seneca Avenue is a 3-story, 6-unit New Law Tenement building located in Ridgewood, built in 1931 and currently owned by Thomas Pham. The building has a notable history of maintenance compliance issues, particularly regarding bedbug reporting requirements, with open violations recorded in 2024 and a history of similar violations in 2022 and 2021.

While the most recent bedbug report filed in March 2023 for the period of November 2021 to October 2022 indicated zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units, the open violation status for annual bedbug reporting shows ongoing compliance concerns. The building has also experienced boiler inspection compliance issues, with a violation issued in November 2019 for failure to file the 2017 inspection report, though this violation was later dismissed with a civil penalty paid.

Inspection records show the building has maintained generally good conditions, with multiple successful rodent inspections between 2012 and 2017, though there was one failure noted in February 2013 for unspecified reasons. The property underwent its most recent rodent inspection in 2017, which passed. The building's age and history as a tenement structure suggest typical urban maintenance challenges, but the pattern of bedbug reporting violations and the delayed boiler inspection filing stand out as the most significant recent compliance issues, particularly given the potential impact on resident comfort and building systems.
