Per a gothamist article about the building collapse:
“The building, which contained five rental apartments and a retail space, was owned by Moses Strulowitz, who purchased the property and 1428 Fulton Street for $11 million last year. He reportedly plans to build an apartment building at 1430 Fulton Street. An application for demolition on 1438 was filed in December of last year, though the DOB had not yet issued a permit for its demolition.”
Sounds like someone got tired of waiting for their permits…
