132 Scribner Avenue, Staten Island, NY 10301

The three-unit residential building at 132 Scribner Avenue in St. George, owned by Jodi Schwimmer and constructed in 2013, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues, particularly during late 2018. The most critical incidents occurred in December 2018, when emergency heat and hot water outages were reported and subsequently resolved within two days.

This was part of a larger pattern of building issues documented between late November and December 2018, including problems with floors, ceilings, walls, electrical wiring, and cooking gas systems - all of which were inspected by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) but were found with no violations issued. Additional concerns during this period included a water leak complaint, though no violations were documented for any of these issues. The building has a documented history of rodent activity, with multiple bait applications recorded between 2017 and 2018, particularly in the first half of 2018 when rat activity was confirmed in inspections from March and June 2018.

More recently, in March 2020, there was an investigation into an alleged illegal conversion of commercial space to dwelling units, though inspectors were unable to gain access during their final inspection attempt. A separate complaint from November 2018 regarding building vibrations or stability concerns was investigated but found to have no violations at the time of inspection. The building's maintenance records suggest a pattern of addressing issues promptly when complaints are filed, though many complaints were resolved without violations being issued.
