Foreclosure of the Week: 931 Fulton Street

For anyone who has a stake in the improvement of Fulton Street, today’s foreclosure sale of 931 Fulton should be of some interest. Located at Waverly across from the meth clinic, this corner could use some prettying up. The property that’s up for sale just goes as far as the Cardinal Realty sign and does not include the Nail salon building. The building, which has gorgeous architectural bones, has a number of long-time tenants paying below-market rents; given that fact, it’s hard to guess how much more than the outstanding lien amount of $244,022 it will fetch. While we have no wish to see the tenants displaced, the condition of the building is emblematic of what happens when a landlord can’t extract enough in rents to properly keep up a property…And speaking of the meth clinic, as we understand it, there has not been any meaningful progress on Tish James’ effort to consolidate the three clinics in the area. In our view, this is currently the biggest impediment to lifting the Fulton curse.

Amen to your last statement 3:55.
I implore you guys who live in that area to call the damn 88th precinct or 74th or whatever is your designated one.
You guys have to understand, as a longtime NYer, I’ve seen that drug dealers go where the addicts are… and until or unless the clinic(s) are relocated, the best thing you can do, which is what you SHOULD do if its your nabe, is just place an anonymous call to your respective precinct when you see drug/violence/criminal activity or when the clinic is gonna let out and you KNOW THEY WILL BUY ON GRAND,FRANKLIN,PUTNAM,etc.
If its was my nabe, you better believe I’d be on the line with the cops and 311 daily!!
All the politicians, gentrification, and real estate appreciation won’t clean up the crime on its own… remember that.
here’s the info on the meth clinic – looks like state and city govt are all up in this…
About A.R.T.C.
Executive Director’s Message:
Welcome to the web site of the Addiction Research and Treatment Corporation. We hope you will find helpful information, and get to know us better
The Addiction Research and Treatment Corporation was organized in 1969 to address the unique problems of hard-core inner city substance users (minority addicts) and has provided prevention and interventions to every person that has crossed a clinical threshold. ARTC is a not-for-profit organization which is certified by the New York State Office of Alcoholism and Substance Abuses (OASAS) and an Article 28 Diagnostic and Treatment Center licensed by the NTSO of Health Systems Management. ARTC’s comprehensive approach is designed to service the heroin addicts in the inner-city communities of New York. It’s objective is to help its patients lead healthy, independent and productive lives allowing them to become responsible citizens who engage in a variety of meaningful activities.
Since it was founded, ARTC has grown into one of the nations’s largest non-hospital based methadone treatment organization in New York State. Its seven community-based methadone maintenance treatment programs and two outpatient drug-free chemical dependency programs have provided a wide range of comprehensive health care and substance abuse treatment services to over 30,000 patients throughout Brooklyn and Manhattan. In the last decade, ARTC has added primary care and HIV/AIDS care services to offer patients the convenience of one-stop-shopping. In addition, it has contributed significantly to the management of HIV/AIDS care through its participation in various clinical trials. With its research on HIV and its treatments, ARTC is helping to improve medicine every day.
When the Addiction Research and Treatment Corporation was started from a single building at 937 Fulton Street in Fort Greene, it was never dreamed that it would become one of the largest and most successful providers of human services and health care in New York. Patient care is at the heart of our mission. An expert staff provides care that is compassionate, personal, and respectful of patients and their families. For more than 30 years, ARTC have provided addiction treatment and support services to persons struggling to achieve recovery. Patients benefit from the most up-to-date treatments medicine has to offer.
I live near here and it is true. those exiting the clinic go straight to the dealers at the corners of grand and putnam and franklin and putnam and score. they are very prone to physical fights that can erupt over nothing or at most, imagined slights (i’ve witnessed it several times walking back from the c). they curse like crazy, regardless of who’s walking by – i.e. small kids who look terrified. (most recently overheard was “suck my asshole…”) it’s a great, diverse neighborhood full of decent people, some of whom have been here for 40 years, others for two and neither group should have to live with that.
Pandering to the methadone user vote isn’t what’s happening – the longtime Brooklyn political “machine” hands out political favors thru the administration of programs like this one. It’s not about the junkies, it’s about the group running the clinic.
Tish is a marvelous representative, and she’ll do her best. But sometimes a city politician will be pitted against a state or federal representative regarding a pet project/ pork barrel project. And just like in Ratner’s view our area was termed “blighted”, census maps, federal funding allocations and many other kinds of state or national projects can be out of phase with the current state of the area.
Don’t fault Tish. She’ll get it worked out.
How did you find out about this?
So do we know what it sold for yet?
I don’t care if the methadone addicts live in the neighborhood or if they don’t, close it, it doesn’t belong in a residential area, rich or poor, period.
I’d kinda like to live there; and I’m not even a methadone addict. doesn anywone know if there are any available apartments?
