278 Targee Street, Staten Island, NY 10304

278 Targee Street is a three-story, two-family residential building constructed in 2000 and currently owned by Muslija Hidric. The property has experienced several concerning maintenance issues recently, with September 2024 being particularly problematic.

During this period, violations were issued for multiple urgent concerns, including heavy water flow leaks, power outages, unsanitary conditions related to mold and pests, and rodent sightings that warranted Department of Health intervention. The building has a documented history of pest-related complaints, with multiple incidents between 2020 and 2021, though these were categorized as non-emergency situations. A garbage/recycling storage issue was reported in August 2018.

Despite these various maintenance challenges, there have been no documented bedbug infestations in the building since 2018, with the most recent bedbug report (May 2025) showing zero affected units. The building's property profile indicates three residential units, typical for its classification, and while it shares some structural features with traditional two-family houses, it technically fits into a different category with additional units. The recent cluster of violations in September 2024, including both sanitary and utility issues, signals potential ongoing maintenance challenges at the property, though the resolution process appears to be underway with inspections scheduled and violations acknowledged by multiple city agencies.
