25 Wright Street, Staten Island, NY 10304

The three-story, two-family house at 25 Wright Street in Stapleton, owned by Angel Mendoza and constructed in 2005, is currently experiencing multiple maintenance issues as of August 2024. The building has an active cluster of open violations and recent complaints, particularly affecting Apartment 1 on the first floor, where problems include pest infestations (with specific violations for both roaches and mice), plumbing issues, and various repair needs.

Recent Housing Maintenance Code violations from August 2024 document specific problems in Apartment 1, including issues with bathroom fixtures (leaky toilet connections, concerns with both the toilet flush pipe and bowl connections, and problems with ceramic tile and caulking), along with structural concerns regarding door frames leading to the balcony and entrance. The building has a history of maintenance complaints over the past two years, with particularly notable issues in 2024 including plumbing problems (toilet issues), safety concerns (broken/missing window guard), water leaks, heating concerns, and a variety of electrical, door/window, and pest-related issues.

Several complaints had to be closed due to inspection access issues, particularly regarding water leak and heat/hot water problems. Earlier violations from late 2022 and 2023 indicated window damage, and prior to 2014, the building had passed a rodent inspection. While some past complaints were resolved relatively quickly, the current cluster of open violations and maintenance issues suggests ongoing challenges with building upkeep, particularly affecting the first-floor apartment.
