2030 Richmond Terrace, Staten Island, NY 10302

The 3-story, 4-unit building at 2030 Richmond Terrace in Port Richmond, owned by Michael Yanovsky, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues over the past few years. Most notably, there have been recurring problems with unsanitary conditions, particularly mold, with emergency complaints filed in both March and April 2023, though no violations were found upon inspection. The property has also faced multiple infrastructure challenges, including electrical issues in January 2019 (outlet/switch problem) and February 2019 (power outage).

Recently, in December 2024, there was a complaint about building shaking/vibrating that led to violations being served. The building has documented pest problems, as evidenced by 2024 violations for mice and roaches in apartment 3F, along with issues with self-closing doors and a damaged wooden door frame. Other concerns include a 2023 violation regarding fire-retardant ceiling repairs in the public hall and a damaged bathroom door in apartment 3R.

The property also has two active violations from 2019 and 2024 related to boiler inspection report filings and commercial space damages. Notably, there was an incident involving non-compliance observed at multiple building levels, with damaged ceiling and wall conditions reported in both commercial and residential areas. Despite these numerous issues, many complaints have been closed without violations being issued or with repairs being completed, though several recent violations remain active. Regular monitoring of the situation is advisable due to the recurring nature of some issues, particularly related to building maintenance and pest control.
