98 Ann Street, Staten Island, NY 10302

The two-family house at 98 Ann Street in Port Richmond, owned by Tracy Tong, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues since 2020, with the most significant cluster of problems occurring in 2021-2022. The building, constructed in 1915, has been particularly susceptible to pest-related issues, with multiple violations and complaints regarding mice infestations in Apartment 2 (2nd floor, 1st apartment from east at south) documented in late 2021, along with sanitation concerns related to garbage/recycling storage. There was also a documented incident of mold in early 2021, along with violations for peeling paint requiring proper repair.

More recently, in 2022, the building faced additional challenges with heat and hot water issues (though these were reportedly resolved) and further pest-related complaints. The property received various violations during 2022 for unsanitary conditions, including issues with overgrown vegetation in the east and west yards, and problems with refuse accumulation in the front yard. The building's maintenance record has shown some efforts at remediation, with several violations being certified as corrected, including those related to mold, wall repairs, and pest control.

Notably, the property underwent rodent inspections in 2017-2018 which showed some improvement, with a passed inspection in 2018 following multiple bait applications in 2010. The most recent violation from 2022 was related to overgrown vegetation, while the most extensive cluster of issues appears to have been addressed through various inspections and corrections. The building's history indicates periodic maintenance challenges, particularly concerning pest control and sanitation, with improvements made over time but with evidence of recurring issues, particularly during the 2021-2022 period.
