16 Butler Terrace, Staten Island, NY 10301

The two-family house at 16 Butler Terrace in Tompkinsville, built in 1901 and currently owned by George Christodoulou, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past several years. Most notably, there were multiple heating-related complaints in 2019, including emergency complaints about lack of heat or hot water in both the entire building and individual apartments, though inspectors were unable to gain access for verification.

The building underwent multiple inspections and received various violation notices in 2018-2019, with documented issues including a mouse infestation in the second-floor apartment, a leaking roof, and problems with carbon monoxide detectors, among others. The property has a concerning history of pest-related issues, with several complaints filed regarding unsanitary conditions in 2018-2019, including one violation related to a rodent infestation in the second-floor apartment. More recent records indicate ongoing concerns, with failed rodent inspections in 2022 and an ECB violation regarding an expired construction fence permit in December 2022 that incurred a $625 penalty.

The building has shown some pattern of access issues during inspections, particularly regarding heating complaints, which were closed without resolution verification. A cluster of complaints was filed in September 2018 for various issues including pests, mold, and problems with flooring, plumbing, and appliances, some of which resulted in violations. While many of the historical violations and complaints were eventually closed, the recurring nature of heating issues and pest problems suggests some ongoing maintenance challenges, though the most recent data does not indicate any active violations as of October 2023.
