238 York Avenue, Staten Island, NY 10301
The 238 York Avenue building in New Brighton is a 4-unit, 3-story structure built in 1931, currently owned by Mohamed Asskr. The building has experienced significant maintenance issues in 2025, particularly with heating systems, as evidenced by multiple heat/hot water complaint investigations in May and June 2025 that resulted in violations. There have been persistent concerns about unsanitary conditions, including pest infestations and mold problems, with multiple complaints in spring 2025.
The building has a documented history of structural maintenance issues, particularly with the exterior south staircase, where violations were issued in late 2024 regarding missing handrail brackets and metal balusters. Previous serious concerns about the property's condition were noted in 2019, with multiple ECB violations regarding collapsing retaining walls at the rear of the property, though these were ultimately resolved. The building's compliance history shows a pattern of maintenance challenges, particularly during 2024-2025, when multiple emergency violations were recorded. These included issues with flooring, electrical systems, and general maintenance.
While there have been some improvements noted in violation resolutions, such as the repair of various safety concerns in late 2024, the frequency of recent complaints suggests ongoing maintenance challenges. Historical records indicate past concerns about building stability and illegal conversions (2018-2019), though these complaints were marked as unable to access or dismissed upon inspection. Rodent inspections from 2009-2015 show a mix of compliance results, with multiple failures in 2010 and successful compliance in later years, while the most recent bedbug reports from 2022 and 2024 indicate no infestations during those periods. The building's permit history shows at least one issued permit in 2019, but there have been multiple complaints regarding failure to certify corrections of violations in 2019, though these were ultimately dismissed.
