1000 Fulton Street, Brooklyn, NY 11238

The 12-unit, 4-story Old Law Tenement building at 1000 Fulton Street in Clinton Hill, owned by Chaskel Landau and constructed in 1930, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over recent years. Most notably, there have been recurring water-related problems, with documented heavy and slow leaks in 2020 that resulted in HPD violations, and reports of unsanitary mold conditions in 2018. The building has also faced structural and safety concerns, including active violations as of 2022 for building maintenance failures, with reports of cracking stucco and defective conditions at the north elevation parapet wall, as well as multiple stop work orders related to construction enforcement.

The property has a documented history of pest issues, particularly with rodent activity, as evidenced by multiple inspections showing rat activity between 2014 and 2022, though recent bedbug reports from 2023-2025 indicate no infestations. In 2023, the building received violations related to annual bedbug reporting requirements. Other notable violations include the need for proper posting of safety notices and maintenance of public areas, particularly during a significant cluster of violations in September 2020 when multiple issues were identified, including improper refuse handling and missing safety notices.

The most recent inspections and reports show some improvement in certain areas, with no bedbug infestations reported in the past two years and recent rodent activity inspections showing only monitoring visits. However, several active violations remain unresolved as of the latest data, particularly related to building facade maintenance. The building's management history shows some responsiveness to violations, with many older complaints being properly addressed, though there have been instances where inspectors were unable to gain access to verify conditions.
