63 Titus Avenue, Staten Island, NY 10306

63 Titus Avenue in New Dorp Beach is a two-story, five-unit residential building constructed in 1972 and currently owned by Mohamed Njeidi. The property has experienced several concerning issues over recent years, particularly relating to sanitation and illegal modifications. Most notably, in July 2023, there was a reported sewage issue classified as an emergency by HPD, though inspectors were unable to gain access to verify the conditions.

In 2021, the building was subjected to rodent problems, with documented rat activity in both April and May of that year, and the Department of Health found violations requiring follow-up inspections. The building has also faced regulatory scrutiny regarding bedbug reporting compliance, receiving violations in 2021, 2022, and 2023 for failing to file annual bedbug reports as required under Housing Maintenance Code (HMC) § HMC. The property was involved in multiple concerning incidents in 2019, including several Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations totaling penalties of $10,000 related to illegal conversions and unauthorized construction work, specifically involving water lines, waste lines, and gas lines installations at the rear cellar level.

These violations suggested the building was being occupied by more than the legally approved number of families, though inspection results at the time did not warrant any violations. The owner was also cited for failing to certify corrections of immediately hazardous (Class 1) violations later that year. While the building's recent bedbug filings from 2022 to 2025 show no reported infestations or eradications, and the property appears to have complied with regular bedbug reporting since then, the history of sanitation issues and regulatory violations raises concerns about past maintenance practices.
