1229 Decatur Street, Brooklyn, NY 11207
The two-family house at 1229 Decatur Street in Bushwick, owned by Craig Paulson, has a notable service history primarily during February 2019 when multiple maintenance issues were reported across the building. These included two separate heat and hot water complaints (one marked as emergency), several paint and plaster issues affecting ceilings and walls, a water leak, and problems with the bell/buzzer/intercom system.
While the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) attempted inspections, they experienced access difficulties, resulting in these complaints being closed with notes indicating re-filing if issues persisted. During the same period, a violation was recorded regarding refuse accumulation and obstruction of the fire escape drop ladder, though this was certified as corrected in March 2019.
More positively, recent inspections show consistent rodent control compliance, with the most recent inspection on April 17, 2025 showing a "Passed" status. Previous rodent inspections in 2024, 2022, 2013 (compliance), and 2012 also showed passing results, with only one failure in April 2013 for unspecified reasons. As of October 2023, there have been no reported code violations or significant maintenance issues on record since the 2019 incidents, suggesting improved building maintenance in recent years.
