291 Stockholm Street, Brooklyn, NY 11237

The 6-unit, 3-story residential building at 291 Stockholm Street in Bushwick, owned by Jacob Fulop and built in 1931, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues over recent years. Most notably, in 2024, the building was cited for structural concerns, with reports of building shaking and a broken window glass hazard that resulted in a $1,250 violation. The property has also faced recurring rodent issues, with multiple inspections between 2022 and 2023 showing rat activity, though recent inspections in 2024 and 2025 have passed without issues.

In late 2022, the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene found violations related to conditions attracting rodents. The building has a history of moisture-related problems, with emergency mold and water leak complaints recorded in October 2019, and these violations were addressed during subsequent inspections. The property has undergone multiple safety and maintenance inspections, revealing various regulatory compliance needs. In October 2019, several violations were documented that required the building owner to address safety notification requirements, including posting information about carbon monoxide detectors, smoke detector requirements, and gas leak procedures in common areas.

Additionally, there was a violation regarding a broken entrance door glass pane. The building's bedbug reporting history shows consistent compliance, with no reported infestations between 2019 and 2024. Recent rodent inspections in 2025 have passed without issues, suggesting improvement in this area, though there have been periodic rat activity reports in previous years. The most recent complaints and violations suggest improved maintenance practices, particularly regarding rodent control and safety compliance, though historical patterns indicate these have been recurring issues requiring ongoing attention.
