19 Grissom Avenue, Staten Island, NY 10314

19 Grissom Avenue is a two-family, two-story residential building located in New Springville, Staten Island, constructed in 1970 and currently owned by Biyun He. The property has encountered several maintenance issues over the past few years, with the most pressing concerns occurring in 2021 when multiple violations were documented in Apartment 1.

An inspection on July 12, 2021, revealed various problems including water leaks, mold in the bathroom ceiling, broken cabinet doors, defective plumbing connections, and issues with the mechanical ventilation system, all of which were subsequently certified as corrected by August 31, 2021. Other maintenance matters from 2021 included concerns about doors, windows, appliances, and plumbing fixtures, with eight separate complaints filed through 311 in June 2021, all of which were investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development with no violations issued.

More recent concerns have emerged regarding pest control, with two ongoing complaints about bee/wasp harboring filed with the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene in September 2022. Additionally, there is an open complaint regarding unmaintained standing water in a swimming pool from the same month that has not been resolved as of now, which could potentially raise health and safety concerns. The building's documented issues show a pattern of maintenance challenges, though most of the significant violations from 2021 appear to have been addressed, with the exception of the more recent pest control and water maintenance concerns.
