217 Gordon Street, Staten Island, NY 10304

This two-family house at 217 Gordon Street in Clifton, owned by Ranazan Bogdanovic, was built in 1901 and has been experiencing ongoing maintenance issues throughout 2024 and into late 2024. The building currently has open concerns regarding sanitary conditions, specifically related to pests and mold, as well as water leak problems, with multiple complaints emerging between April and November 2024.

Notably, HPD inspections were unable to be completed for several of these recent complaints, including reports of heavy water flow, unsanitary conditions, and appliance-related issues (specifically with electric/gas range and refrigerator) filed between January 2024 and November 2024. While some earlier complaints from January 2024 regarding water leaks, window frames, and general intercom issues were inspected and closed without violations, the more recent complaints suggest persistent maintenance challenges.

Looking at the building's history beyond 2024, there were two significant complaints in 2021 that merit attention: one regarding a defective or inoperative boiler and another concerning an alleged illegal conversion, both of which resulted in inspectors being unable to gain access during their investigations. The property has maintained its original two-story, two-unit configuration throughout its documented history. Given the number of recent complaints and the pattern of inspection access issues, there appears to be a recurring challenge with maintenance response and building conditions that has persisted into 2024, though it's important to note that not all complaints have resulted in documented violations or confirmed inspection findings.
