43 Andrews Street, Staten Island, NY 10305

Located in Arrochar, 43 Andrews Street is a two-family residential building constructed in 1915, currently owned by Shi Wang. The property has experienced recurring heating system issues, with multiple complaints about no heat or hot water in both 2024 and 2023, affecting the entire building as well as individual units.

These heating emergencies have generated multiple 311 service requests, though most were resolved relatively quickly. The building has significant outstanding violations from a July 2022 inspection, primarily affecting the second-floor unit (2F), including problems with a leaking bathroom ceiling, mouse infestation, and numerous required repairs and maintenance tasks such as painting requirements for various surfaces and the need to address building entry door issues. Two serious matters requiring immediate attention were identified in 2022: the need to post proper gas leak and carbon monoxide detection notices in common areas, which are still Open violations as of today.

The property has undergone several rodent inspections, with the most recent one in March 2024 resulting in a passing grade, though previous inspections in 2015 and 2016 had failed for other reasons. A 2020 complaint related to COVID-19 executive orders was investigated and found no violations at the time. While some issues have been addressed through various HPD interventions, such as the March 2024 heat/hot water complaints being partially resolved, several serious maintenance and safety matters remain unresolved, particularly the 2022 violation for the roof leak in 2F.
