138 Woolley Avenue, Staten Island, NY 10314

The two-family house at 138 Woolley Avenue in Westerleigh, built in 1955 and currently owned by Ahmad Abuallan, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues in recent years, particularly in 2024-2025. The property has an ongoing history of mold issues, with multiple emergency complaints registered between 2024 and 2025, including violations issued in June 2024. There have been repeated complaints about ceiling paint/plaster conditions, with inspections in June 2024 resulting in violations, though later inspections in October 2024 found no violations.

Of particular concern, the building has faced structural stability issues in early 2025, with multiple complaints about building shaking/vibrating recorded between January and June 2025, including one active complaint about construction work beyond approved plans. The property has also experienced basic service issues, particularly during late 2024, when there were several complaints about heat/hot water problems, electrical outlet/switch issues, and unsanitary conditions. While some complaints resulted in inspections finding no violations, others saw HPD unable to gain access for inspection.

More recently, in May 2025, there was a rodent-related service request, though this inspection resulted in only minor violations. Additionally, the building has had two complaints related to unlicensed/illegal/improper work in January 2025, both requiring corrective action. While some of these issues have been addressed or closed through inspections, the recurring nature of the complaints suggests ongoing maintenance challenges at the property.
