Inside New York’s Most Dangerous Housing Projects (Staten Island) | Crime, Decay & Neglect

#statenisland #newyork #documentary Staten Island is often called New York City’s safest borough—but some of its public housing projects tell a much different story. In this powerful exposé, we uncover the truth behind five of Staten Island’s most dangerous and neglected housing developments, where crime, crumbling infrastructure, and tenant frustration are at an all-time high. 🔍 Featured Projects: 🏚️ Mariners Harbor Houses A deadly 2024 shooting and rising sexual assaults plague this northwest Staten Island complex. While NYCHA plans partial upgrades, violent crime remains a serious concern. 🚨 Arlington Terrace (North Shore Plaza) One of the most shocking state audits in recent years exposed collapsed stairs, exposed wiring, infestations, and major safety hazards—turning this Mitchell-Lama site into a spotlight for neglect. 💥 Berry Houses Located in one of Staten Island’s supposedly “safest” areas, this senior housing complex still faces violence and a major spike in felony assaults—plus long-standing maintenance complaints. 💸 Richmond Terrace Houses Armed robberies, drug raids, and aging infrastructure paint a grim picture at this North Shore site, where crime has continued to rise in 2025. 🩸 Stapleton Houses A 2025 fatal stabbing and a 2021 gas outage that left families without cooking gas for months show just how deep the issues run at this historic but troubled NYCHA development. 🎥 We break down crime stats, state audits, and community stories to reveal the real state of Staten Island’s housing projects in 2025.
