407 Cornelia Street, Brooklyn, NY 11237
The two-story, three-unit residential building at 407 Cornelia Street in Bushwick, owned by Laselle Fowler and built in 1901, has experienced several maintenance and compliance challenges over recent years. Most notably, there are multiple active violations regarding lead paint management from 2021, including failures to notify occupants and provide required records, as well as annual bedbug reporting violations from 2022-2024.
The building has a concerning history of plumbing and infrastructure issues, with multiple complaints in early 2021 involving various building systems (sink, ceiling, wall, floor) all of which were ultimately closed without violations. The property has also undergone several rodent inspections between 2011 and 2025, with most recent inspections in 2023 and 2024 passing successfully, though there was a rat sighting reported and investigated by DOHMH in February 2023. The building has pending violations related to unauthorized modifications of the front sidewalk/curb area for vehicle access, with active Environmental Control Board violations from 2018 regarding this illegal parking area.
Various apartment-specific maintenance issues have been documented, including leaky faucets in Unit 2R (2020), though many complaints from late 2020 regarding unsanitary conditions, mold, and appliance issues went unresolved due to lack of access for inspection. The property has maintained regular rodent control inspections, with the most recent findings in 2025 showing compliance. While many historical complaints have been addressed and closed, the presence of open lead paint-related violations and recurring bedbug reporting issues suggests ongoing regulatory compliance challenges.
