1220 Remsen Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11236
The two-family house at 1220 Remsen Avenue in Canarsie, built in 1935 and currently owned by Josef Ariel, has experienced a few notable events since 2018.
Most significantly, in April 2018, the property was cited for an Environmental Control Board violation when approximately six workers were found performing construction activities across multiple floors including the first, second, and basement levels, involving gas lines, plumbing pipes, and electrical wires - all without the necessary permits. This violation, which posed potential safety concerns regarding unauthorized construction and utility work, was resolved with an $800 penalty that has since been paid.
Following this incident, proper permits were finally issued in September 2019 for construction work, as evidenced by the issuance of permit sequence number 340695590 under job number 340695590. This permit issuance suggests that the building's owner took steps to rectify the previous unauthorized work, though there is a significant gap between the violation (April 2018) and the permit issuance (September 2019).
