54 Holland Avenue, Staten Island, NY 10303

The four-unit, four-story building at 54 Holland Avenue in Howland Hook, owned by George Wonica, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, particularly focusing on apartment 2R. Most notably, in August 2023, the entire building was subject to heat and hot water complaints, followed by inspections revealing multiple violations in apartment 2R, including inadequate hot water at fixtures, waste line obstructions in the bathroom shower stall, and several repair needs involving doors and windows.

This apartment also required attention for a cockroach infestation in July 2023, and various other maintenance issues including problems with plastered surfaces and window security. Earlier complaints from 2020 and 2023 regarding plumbing and water supply issues indicate persistent concerns with building systems. The property has an established record of maintenance violations dating back to 2021, when apartment 1R was found to have visible mold in the bathroom ceiling and needed repairs to plastered surfaces and painting.

Historical records show rodent inspection results in 2012, with one failure noted before a subsequent pass. While the building has had its share of violations, most have been addressed and closed, though the August 2023 heat and hot water complaint was particularly significant as it affected the entire building and resulted in violations being issued by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development. The concentration of issues in apartment 2R, especially in 2023, suggests particular attention may be required in this unit, though recent violation certifications indicate these issues were addressed.
