600 Richmond Road, Staten Island, NY 10304

The two-family house at 600 Richmond Road in Park Hill, currently owned by Ampp Holdings LLC, has experienced significant maintenance issues over the past few years, particularly affecting one unit (Unit 1) on the second floor. Most notably, in July 2024, a cluster of complaints resulted in multiple inspections by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), including issues with windows, doors, floors, appliance concerns, and unsanitary conditions involving pests.

While these inspections did not result in any violations, they highlight ongoing maintenance challenges. More seriously, the building has documented violations from both 2023 and 2024, including problems with lead-based paint hazards, ceiling leaks in multiple rooms, pest infestations, and various repair needs including broken plastered surfaces and peeling paint in Unit 1. Additional historical context includes a 2021 complaint about illegal conversion that was ultimately closed due to access issues.

The most recent batch of violations, issued in July 2024, included multiple orders for repair work in Unit 1, covering issues such as leaking ceilings in the bathroom and kitchen, pest infestations, and surface repair needs. While these violations were certified as corrected by September 2024, the frequency and variety of maintenance issues over this period suggest ongoing challenges with building upkeep. The property, built in 1955, consists of two stories and was classified as a two-family house in the city's building records.
