1551 Fulton Street, Brooklyn, NY 11216

The four-story, three-unit tenement building at 1551 Fulton Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Yuk Lo, has experienced several notable regulatory issues in recent years. Most concerning is a pattern of non-compliance with mandatory annual bedbug reporting, with open violations recorded in 2024, 2023, and 2022, indicating the owner has consistently failed to file the required reports as per Housing Maintenance Code requirements.

Additionally, there is an active Department of Buildings violation from September 2024 regarding an unfiled 2023 external low pressure inspection, which marks the building's second infraction in this area; a similar violation from June 2023 relating to the 2021 inspection was dismissed in July 2023. Despite these violations, there have been some positive indicators of building maintenance.

The property underwent inspections in 2024, 2022, and 2019 which passed for rodent control compliance, suggesting adequate pest management systems are in place, at least in this regard. Furthermore, a bedbug report from December 2020 covering the period from November 2019 to October 2020 indicated no infested units, though this filing period predated the more recent non-compliance issues. While the building's age (constructed in 1910) and classification as an Old Law Tenement are typical for the neighborhood, the persistent nature of the bedbug reporting violations over multiple years and the most recent low pressure inspection violation suggest ongoing challenges with compliance and record-keeping.
