114 Van Pelt Avenue, Staten Island, NY 10303

The two-family residence at 114 Van Pelt Avenue in Mariners Harbor, owned by Aleksandra Simanovsky, is a two-story building constructed in 1930 that has experienced several maintenance issues affecting both units over the past several years.

The most recent documented violation, from July 2023, involved a roach infestation in the second-floor apartment, while earlier violations from 2019 revealed multiple maintenance concerns in both units. Apartment 2 had issues with leaky faucets in the bathroom and damaged gypsum board on the north wall of the third room from the east, and there were additional problems with gypsum board in the public hall on the first story.

Apartment 1 had documented defects including broken plaster surfaces and inconsistent paint color on the south wall of the kitchen and ceiling of the foyer, affecting both the living space and common areas. While all reported violations have been officially closed, the recurring pattern of maintenance issues, particularly the recent pest problem, suggests ongoing challenges with building upkeep and resident comfort.
