102 Taft Avenue, Staten Island, NY 10301

The two-family house at 102 Taft Avenue in St. George, owned by Diana Buono, has experienced several maintenance issues over the past five years, with the most recent being multiple flooring violations documented in February 2024. The building's first apartment unit has been the focus of several documented violations, including pest infestation (roaches), defective carbon monoxide detectors, and various maintenance issues affecting windows, doors, and flooring.

In 2024, specific violations were recorded for broken wood floors in both the foyer and kitchen, while earlier inspections in 2021 noted problems with electrical outlet covers, plaster surfaces, window functionality, and plumbing fixtures. The building has undergone multiple plumbing inspections between 2020-2021, with no violations found, though there were complaints regarding various fixtures including sinks, showers, and toilets. Previous maintenance issues in 2020 included water leaks, mold, and ceiling problems, all of which were addressed without violations being issued.

The building's history also shows regular inspections and complaint resolutions through the NYC Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), with recent violations from 2024 being classified as both Class A and Class B, requiring various repairs including flooring maintenance and carbon monoxide detector replacement. An earlier rodent inspection conducted in April 2014 passed without any noted issues. While the property has faced multiple maintenance challenges, most recent violations appear to be being addressed, as evidenced by certification dates for some 2024 violations showing proper remediation.
