47 Henderson Avenue, Staten Island, NY 10301

The three-story, three-unit residential building at 47 Henderson Avenue in New Brighton, owned by Charles Garris, has experienced several notable events since 2018. In late 2018, there were rodent-related issues, with initial complaints resulting in a failed inspection, though a subsequent compliance inspection that November passed. The building underwent a series of housing maintenance code violations in November 2022, with multiple issues identified on the first story, including defective self-closing doors at both the vestibule and building entrance, missing heating system keyholder notice, and failure to properly display the certificate of inspection visits near the mailboxes.

There were also requirements to post proper notices regarding the agency's housing information guide in both English and Spanish. Two bedbug reporting violations were issued in 2021 and 2022, though the most recent bedbug report from April 2024 shows no infestations or eradications during the 2022-2023 filing period. Significant building security and safety concerns were documented in 2019, when complaints about building shaking and structural stability were investigated, though these complaints were ultimately closed with no violations warranted.

A motor vehicle incident in June 2019 temporarily impacted the building's front structure, dislocating the wood porch and obstructing egress, but this violation was dismissed in April 2020 following proper correction measures. The property has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements since 2022, with no recorded infestations in the past three years. The most recent work permits on record, issued in November 2019, appear to relate to the structural repair issues that were subsequently resolved.
