62 Sherman Avenue, Staten Island, NY 10301

The 3-story, 3-unit residential building at 62 Sherman Avenue in St. George, owned by Elbi Cespedes and constructed in 1930, has experienced a series of concerning maintenance issues in recent months. Most notably, in October 2023, the property faced multiple violations related to unsanitary conditions, including pest infestations (two separate complaints), as well as plumbing issues involving a sink/basin and significant water leakage problems.

These violations were confirmed by inspections conducted by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD). Additional complaints during this period included concerns about flooring/stairs and cabinet issues, though not all of these inspections resulted in violations. While the building has had its share of maintenance challenges, it's worth noting that there have been no reports of bedbug infestations in the most recent reporting period (November 2022 - October 2023), with the management showing a pattern of addressing such issues promptly in previous years.

The most recent bedbug report from September 2024 indicated zero units affected or requiring eradication. The property has undergone various inspections and corrections as needed, with many complaints being categorized as non-emergency, though some critical issues like water leaks and mold were treated as emergencies and addressed accordingly. The building's history shows a mix of resolved and ongoing maintenance concerns, with a particular concentration of issues related to plumbing and pest control in recent months.
