946 Fulton Street, Brooklyn, NY 11238

946 Fulton Street is a 4-story, 3-unit residential building constructed in 1930, currently owned by 946 Fulton LLC, located in the Clinton Hill neighborhood. The property has experienced several recurring issues related to garbage/recycling storage, with four non-emergency complaints filed in 2025 alone, though HPD inspections found no housing law violations in these cases. More concerning were multiple violations and complaints in 2021 regarding Apartment 4, including reports of rodent infestations (mice and roaches), issues with smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, and problems with ceiling plaster and paint.

The building has also faced recent significant challenges, with multiple active ECB violations from 2024 related to electrical work, temporary lighting installation, and flooring removal in the commercial space, resulting in substantial proposed penalties totaling $8,725. Compliance issues are evident, with several failures to file required external low-pressure inspection reports for multiple years (2018-2023), including a current active violation issued in 2024. While the building has maintained a consistent record of zero bedbug infestations since 2019 and no rodent activity reported in recent inspections, the pattern of maintenance issues and active violations regarding safety systems and compliance requirements raises ongoing concerns about building management practices.

The property has a documented history of various maintenance issues, including electrical wiring concerns in 2023 (though inspectors could not gain access), ceiling paint/plaster problems in 2020, and a heat/hot water issue in 2018. A concerning pattern of "unsanitary condition" complaints has emerged in recent years, particularly focusing on garbage/recycling storage problems, though these complaints have not resulted in documented housing law violations. The building underwent several inspections in 2024 related to tenant safety, with one inspection serving an Oath Violation, and there is an active ECB violation related to failure to comply with a commissioner's order regarding electrical work. The ownership has demonstrated some responsiveness to maintenance issues, as evidenced by the certification of certain previous violations, though there remain concerns about the handling of more recent complaints and inspections.
