42 Corson Avenue, Staten Island, NY 10301

42 Corson Avenue is a 3-unit, 3-story Old Law Tenement building located in St. George, Staten Island, constructed in 1925 and currently owned by Bedrije Haxhijaj. The building has experienced a few significant maintenance issues in recent years, particularly in 2022, with emergency complaints filed regarding heat/hot water problems in May and door/window issues in October.

Unfortunately, in both instances, inspectors from the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) were unable to gain access to the apartments for inspection, leading to the closure of these complaints. Additionally, there was an HPD violation in 2021 and 2022 related to the failure to file the required annual bedbug report, though these violations have since been closed. The building's recent bedbug reporting history, however, shows a consistent record of no infestations or related issues from 2019 through 2025, with all annual reports indicating zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units.

The property has maintained a good track record with rodent inspections, passing all checks conducted between 2014 and 2017. In 2021, there was an illegal conversion complaint filed with the Department of Buildings, though inspectors were unable to gain access during the inspection. While the building has had some maintenance challenges, particularly with access issues for inspections, recent bedbug reports and rodent inspections suggest overall improvements in pest management and building maintenance compliance. The most recent bedbug report for the period ending October 2024 shows no infestations, marking three consecutive years of pest-free status.
