7 Sharpe Avenue, Staten Island, NY 10302

The three-story, two-family house at 7 Sharpe Avenue in Port Richmond, owned by Arjan Capa and built in 2001, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past few years. Most recently, in October 2023, emergency complaints were filed regarding mold and plumbing issues, while non-emergency complaints were made about wall conditions.

Two specific violations were recorded on October 6, 2023, affecting the second apartment's bathroom waste line and a wall defect in the third room, both classified as "B" level violations which generally indicate conditions that may not pose an immediate threat to life but could potentially affect the comfort and safety of the occupants. The building's history includes recurring heat and hot water issues in March 2019, with three separate complaints filed on March 7, though inspectors were unable to gain access to the apartments for verification.

Prior to that, a garbage/recycling storage concern was reported in September 2021 and resolved by June 2022. While the heat/hot water problems were ultimately unverified, the more recent complaints and violations from 2023 suggest ongoing maintenance challenges that may affect resident comfort.
