604 Ionia Avenue, Staten Island, NY 10312

The two-family house at 604 Ionia Avenue in Woodrow, owned by Diana Deluca, has experienced a series of concerning maintenance issues over the past two years, with particularly significant problems between September 2023 and February 2024. During this period, the property faced multiple heat and hot water outages, with a total of seven complaints filed between October and November 2023, some requiring emergency responses. The building has also dealt with serious unsanitary conditions, including sewage problems in the basement, mold issues in the first-floor bathroom, and pest infestations on multiple floors, as evidenced by several complaints and violations.

Notably, there are open violations related to mold (Class B) in the first-floor bathroom and inadequate heat and hot water (Class C) in the main floor apartment as of November 2023. Recent inspection activity has raised concerns about potential illegal modifications to the property, with multiple complaints between late 2023 and 2025 regarding possible unauthorized conversions, including illegal bathroom installations and partitioning. While some of these complaints show as resolved or closed, an active ECB violation from May 2024 indicates an ongoing investigation into occupancy violations related to unauthorized partitions and bathroom fixtures.

The Department of Buildings has attempted inspections in 2025 regarding these concerns, though access has been denied. The building has also experienced infrastructure issues, with documented problems including electrical wiring concerns and multiple instances of water/sewage problems requiring HPD intervention. The property's maintenance history suggests persistent issues with basic services and infrastructure, warranting attention to the building's overall habitability conditions.
