9 Marcus Garvey Blvd, Brooklyn, NY 11206

The property at 9 Marcus Garvey Blvd in Bedford-Stuyvesant is a 3-story, 4-unit OLD LAW TENEMENT building constructed in 1931, currently owned by Douglas Baillie. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, most notably a water leak complaint from February 2023 that was closed due to lack of access for inspection in September 2023. In March 2018, multiple housing maintenance code violations were recorded related to safety and information signage in the first-story public hall, including requirements for gas leak procedures, smoke detector information, carbon monoxide detector requirements, and various other safety notices - all of which have been certified as corrected as of 2024.

Additional historical violations include a 2013 issue with accumulated refuse in the rear yard and a defective kitchen window in apartment 3L. The building's more recent maintenance history shows attention to pest control, with consistent bedbug reports from 2020 to 2023 indicating no infestations during those periods. Rodent inspections have been conducted regularly, with the most recent showing "Passed" results in 2025, 2024, 2023, and 2022, though there was one instance of "Rat Activity" recorded in August 2021.

The property has maintained good compliance with bedbug reporting requirements from 2020 through 2023, consistently reporting zero infested units. Two electrical work (EW) permits were issued in September 2018, suggesting past electrical system improvements or maintenance work. While the building has experienced various maintenance issues over the years, most recent inspections and reports indicate improved compliance with housing maintenance codes and safety requirements, with no current open violations on record as of October 2023.
