1235 Fulton Street, Brooklyn, NY 11216

1235 Fulton Street is a 4-story, 3-unit old law tenement building constructed in 1910, currently owned by Michael Gould. Recent significant events include multiple concerning violations regarding unauthorized unit conversions, with the property facing four active ECB violations from December 2023, each imposing penalties of $15,030 (for rooms 1-4) and one larger penalty of $25,000. These violations allege that the building has been converted to contain four additional units beyond its legal authorization, with occupants present in multiple formerly non-residential spaces.

The building has also experienced structural concerns, with a partial vacate order issued in December 2023 related to building stability, though subsequent inspections dismissed later structural violations. A restaurant fire in late 2023 resulted in additional violations concerning building maintenance and damage, though these were later dismissed. The property has maintained consistent rodent inspection pass rates from 2019 through 2025, demonstrating good pest control management.

Bedbug reporting requirements have been met, with the most recent report for 2024 showing no infested units. Multiple housing maintenance code violations regarding annual bedbug reporting were issued between 2021-2024, though these have since been resolved. Recent complaints from 2024 regarding construction-related issues and illegal after-hours work resulted in investigations, though no violations were substantiated in these cases. Historical complaints from 2018-2019 about unauthorized plumbing work and sprinkler system concerns were also investigated but no violations were found.
