36 Innis Street, Staten Island, NY 10302

36 Innis Street is a two-family house located in Port Richmond, built in 1935 and currently owned by Svetlana Lebedev. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past several years, with the most recent problems in 2023 involving heat and hot water outages affecting the entire building in both July and May.

These heating problems were previously documented in a 2019 violation of the Housing Maintenance Code, which remains open. The building faced significant plumbing challenges in December 2022, with multiple emergency complaints regarding water supply issues, particularly affecting Apartment 1, where these problems appear to have been persistent. In addition to plumbing concerns, Apartment 1 has multiple open violations from 2018-2019, including scalding hot water (recorded at 140-152 degrees), inadequate heat supply, loose kitchen cabinets, water leaks in the bathroom ceiling, and various problems with kitchen flooring and lighting fixtures.

The building's maintenance history also reveals concerns about rodent issues, with failed inspections in 2015 and 2016. While some of these violations may have been addressed since their original filing dates, the open status of several 2019 violations and the pattern of recurring heating and plumbing problems through 2023 suggest ongoing maintenance challenges. The Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) has responded to multiple emergency complaints at the property, with varying degrees of access to apartments for inspection purposes, and while some issues were reported as resolved, others required tenants to file new complaints if problems persisted.
