2993 Fulton Street, Brooklyn, NY 11208

The three-story, five-unit tenement building at 2993 Fulton Street in Cypress Hills, owned by Yechiel Weber and constructed in 1910, has experienced recurring maintenance issues over recent years that warrant attention. Most notably, there have been multiple heating and hot water system problems, including an emergency heating failure affecting an apartment in November 2022 and violations related to hot water access in August 2021.

The building has also faced electrical challenges, with documented power outages in December 2022 requiring HPD intervention, though no violations were found. A significant cluster of violations was documented in 2019, including fire safety issues such as improper fire retardant materials in the cellar ceiling, electrical wiring concerns, and problems with self-closing doors throughout the building. The property has a history of various infrastructure and safety concerns, including door and window issues, general maintenance problems, and multiple instances requiring plaster and paint repairs.

While the building has maintained an active bedbug eradication program since 2020, with the most recent reports showing no current infestations, there have been multiple instances of rodent inspections between 2017 and 2018, with some failing to meet compliance standards. Between 2018 and 2019, the building was the subject of several Department of Buildings Environmental Control Board violations regarding unauthorized occupancy and work in the cellar, leading to various penalties, though these appear to be resolved as per records. Recent years have shown improved pest control management, with no infestations reported since 2020, though the building's maintenance history suggests ongoing monitoring of heating, electrical, and general maintenance systems would be prudent.
