151 Van Pelt Avenue, Staten Island, NY 10303

The two-family house at 151 Van Pelt Avenue in Mariners Harbor, built in 1925 and currently owned by Liliana Torija, has experienced several concerning maintenance issues over the past two decades. The property has a documented history of water infrastructure problems, with both the first-floor and second-floor apartments reporting inadequate hot water supply in 2009, violations that were only certified as resolved in December 2019.

The first-floor apartment also had carbon monoxide safety violations in 2009, while the second-floor unit experienced multiple maintenance issues in 2008, including rodent infestation, defective kitchen appliances, bathroom plumbing problems, and concerns about security due to an improperly installed double-cylinder lock. The building's history shows significant pest control challenges, particularly from 2010 to 2013, with multiple inspections and bait applications for rodent issues.

The property underwent several rodent inspections during this period, with at least eight instances of bait application between 2010-2012, and compliance inspections in 2012 and 2013 that failed for various reasons. While these violations are now years in the past, their frequency and nature suggest that the building faced substantial maintenance challenges during that period. All violations on record have been marked as closed, with the most recent noted resolution in December 2019, indicating no active housing maintenance violations as of now.
