2919 Fulton Street, Brooklyn, NY 11207

This three-story, two-family house located at 2919 Fulton Street in Cypress Hills, owned by Sonia Dejesus, was constructed in 1920 and has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, there are active violations related to the boiler system, with an ECB violation from June 2023 regarding an unregistered Green Mountain gas-fired boiler with a penalty of $3,125 currently due. The property has a documented history of rodent activity, with inspections in 2018-2020 showing persistent issues, though a bedbug report from 2021 indicated no infestations during the previous year-long period.

The building has experienced various housing maintenance code violations requiring attention, including unsanitary conditions related to garbage storage in 2019 and 2021, a broken window guard in 2020, and multiple ceiling paint/plaster issues in late 2018. There was also a significant incident in 2020 involving unpermitted renovation work on the first floor, which led to multiple ECB violations and penalties totaling $6,250, though some were subsequently resolved. The property owner has faced challenges with timely boiler registration and inspection filings, as indicated by active violations for failure to file 2019 and 2023 external low-pressure inspections.

Despite these issues, many of the historical complaints have been closed without violations being issued upon inspection, though there is an ongoing need for compliance with various boiler-related requirements and inspections. The building's 311 complaint history shows a pattern of responsive maintenance management, with most cases being resolved through HPD inspections, though some required multiple complaint filings due to access issues. The property has shown improvement in certain areas, as evidenced by passing inspections in 2018 and 2014 for rat activity, suggesting periods of successful pest management. However, the presence of active violations and the historical pattern of maintenance issues warrant continued monitoring of the building's condition and management practices.
