1583 Castleton Avenue, Staten Island, NY 10302

The two-family house at 1583 Castleton Avenue in Port Richmond, owned by Dominick Ciccarelli, has been experiencing recurring pest issues, with three separate complaints about unsanitary conditions related to pests filed in May 2025, two of which resulted in HPD violations that the owner must address. This recent pest problem marks a significant resident concern, though it's worth noting that the building has had a clean bedbug record for the past four reporting periods from 2021 through 2024, with no infestations or required eradications.

The property has undergone some documented structural work, as evidenced by Department of Buildings violations issued in March 2021 for unpermitted construction work involving window removal and unauthorized construction of wooden stairs, along with improper debris storage in the front yard. These violations carried penalties of $1,750, though records indicate they were resolved.

The building's maintenance history shows some regulatory oversight, with multiple Department of Buildings inspections in 2021-2023 and a failed rodent inspection in June 2016, though it subsequently passed in July 2016. Additional building complaints filed in 2023 and 2021 were investigated but found to have no violations warranting action at the time of inspection. The property's environmental record suggests a generally cautious approach to pest management in recent years, with the most recent building records indicating maintenance investigations, particularly focused on addressing the current pest issues that emerged in May 2025.
