29 Avon Place, Staten Island, NY 10301

29 Avon Place is a 4-story, 17-unit residential building located in Tompkinsville, Staten Island, built in 1926 and currently owned by Ruzanna Vaysman. The building has experienced recurring water-related issues, with multiple complaints about leaks documented between 2023 and 2025, including recent emergency reports of heavy flow and slow leaks in June 2025, as well as inspections for water-related problems in October 2024 and earlier in 2023.

Recent complaints suggest ongoing moisture management challenges, with reports of mold and unsanitary conditions in June 2025. The building has a documented history of various maintenance issues in 2023, including plumbing problems affecting toilets and bathtubs, electrical concerns with lighting, and ceiling plaster problems, all of which were reportedly corrected according to HPD records. The property underwent a notable inspection in September 2024, resulting in several open violations primarily affecting Apartments 1A and 1D, including issues with self-closing doors, smoke detector functionality, carbon monoxide detectors, and bathroom plaster surfaces.

The building's maintenance history shows recurring pest management challenges, though recent bedbug reports indicate no current infestations as of December 2024, with previous infestations documented in units between 2021 and 2023. Rodent inspections show a mixed history, with initial inspections in late 2022 resulting in failures for unexplained reasons, though subsequent compliance inspections passed. While the building has had multiple violations and service requests over the past few years, particularly related to water issues and unit-specific maintenance needs, records indicate that many complaints have been resolved, though some violations remain open as of the latest inspection data.
