11 Highland Avenue, Staten Island, NY 10301

The 6-unit, 3-story residential building at 11 Highland Avenue in Silver Lake, owned by Michael Fazio, was constructed between late 2017 and 2019 with various permits issued for plumbing and electrical work. During the construction phase in March 2019, the Department of Buildings issued three significant violations related to safety concerns, including inadequate safety equipment measures (no handrails, leading to a $2,500 penalty), poor housekeeping conditions (excessive loose bricks and debris), and improper lot line fencing (with a chain link fence constructed instead of the required solid fence).

These construction-related violations were subsequently resolved. More recently, the building has maintained a proper bedbug reporting record, with the most recent annual report for 2024 showing no infestations, and previous years (2022-2023 and 2021-2022) also reporting zero infested or previously infested units.

In 2023, a Housing Maintenance Code violation was recorded regarding the failure to file the annual bedbug report, though this was marked as closed and may have been an administrative oversight given the subsequent accurate filings. The building's permit history shows consistent and proper documentation of necessary work during its construction phase, with multiple permits issued and re-issued between late 2018 and mid-2019 for various systems installation.
