Violation Watch

Staten Island Building Violations Lookup & Real-Time Alerts

Staten Island has a unique enforcement landscape—suburban-style blocks, coastal zones, commercial strips, and older housing stock that still falls under strict NYC codes. If you’re still checking DOB or HPD manually, you’re missing violations until they become fines.

ViolationWatch monitors DOB, HPD, FDNY, ECB/OATH, DEP, DOHMH, DOT, DSNY, DOF and all 311 complaints tied to your properties. When a new violation hits your Staten Island building, you get an instant alert by WhatsApp and email—not weeks later.

Built for Staten Island’s Unique Enforcement Patterns

Suburban Blocks, Historic Homes & Mixed Housing

From Tottenville and Great Kills to West Brighton and St. George, Staten Island mixes one-family homes, multi-family units, and aging housing stock — each with different inspection triggers.

Commercial Corridors & Transit Hubs

Victory Blvd, Richmond Ave, Hylan Blvd and St. George see higher DOB, HPD and 311 activity due to mixed-use buildings, storefronts, and transit density.

Waterfront, Flood Zones & Storm-Impact Areas

South Shore, Midland Beach, New Dorp Beach, Oakwood and other flood-zone neighborhoods face stricter DEP, DOB, and environmental oversight. Missing one notice can delay repairs or insurance claims.
