1754 Fulton Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233

The 97-unit, 3-story building at 1754 Fulton Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Herminio Torres and constructed in 1982, has faced several recurring maintenance and safety issues over recent years. Most notably, there has been an ongoing problem with heat and hot water access in early 2025, with two emergency complaints filed in January that were confirmed as resolved through HPD communications.

The building has experienced persistent pest control challenges, with multiple complaints about rodents and insects between 2022 and 2024, including open violations for roach and mouse infestations in apartments 1A, 1B, 2A, and 3B as of 2024. During 2024, there were also concerns about electrical issues including two power outage incidents in August, and more recently, rodent activity was confirmed during inspections in July 2025. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of environmental challenges, including an instance of mold in November 2024 and various pest-related complaints throughout 2023-2024.

Notably, the property has maintained a pest control program as evidenced by regular rodent baiting operations, though inspections have frequently identified rat activity. The Department of Buildings had documented mechanical issues in 2019 regarding the boiler room's safety features, which were resolved. While bedbug reports for the period from November 2023 to October 2024 show no infestations, the building's overall maintenance record suggests ongoing challenges with basic services and environmental conditions that require regular intervention from housing authorities.
