64-24 Madison Street, Queens, NY 11385

The three-story, six-unit building at 64-24 Madison Street in Ridgewood, owned by Catherine Tolomeo, has experienced numerous maintenance issues requiring attention throughout 2024-2025. Most concerning are recent violations related to safety systems, including smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, with new service requests in April 2025 and multiple violations issued in April 2025. The building also has an active set of violations from November 2024 for Apartment 3R, including issues with bathroom fixtures, floor tiles, kitchen cabinets, and a roach infestation.

While recent inspections in February 2025 addressed several issues, including floor problems, door maintenance, and mold concerns, multiple violations remain open, particularly in Apartment 3R. The property has faced recurring access issues for inspections, as evidenced by multiple 311 service requests in 2025 for electrical and safety system inspections where HPD inspectors could not gain access. While there have been no bedbug infestations reported in the past five years, the building has experienced various maintenance challenges, including plumbing and flooring issues.

Two complaints regarding excessive debris and building stability were filed in late 2024 and early 2025 but were found to have no violations upon inspection. The building's maintenance history reveals persistent challenges with safety systems, plumbing, and interior maintenance, particularly affecting Apartment 3R. Recent violations related to safety systems and unsanitary conditions suggest ongoing concerns regarding building maintenance and resident safety.
