119 Marcus Garvey Blvd, Brooklyn, NY 11206
119 Marcus Garvey Boulevard is a 2-story, 3-unit residential building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn. Built in 1899 and currently owned by Matthew Kern, this Class A building has experienced several significant structural challenges in recent years.
Most notably, in April 2024, serious structural concerns emerged regarding both this building and the adjacent property at 117 Marcus Garvey Boulevard, with reports of wood rot, leaning structures, and collapse risks resulting in a partial vacate order for the rear yard. This followed a series of construction-related issues between 2019-2024, including multiple complaints about unlicensed work, construction enforcement concerns, and though most of these cases were ultimately resolved with no violations found or orders rescinded, they indicate a period of construction activity that raised regulatory scrutiny.
The building's recent history has been relatively stable, with no new violations or complaints recorded since the notable 2024 structural issue. Additionally, records show no bedbug infestations or related issues in the building during the past reporting period from November 2022 to October 2023, with the pest control status indicating zero units affected and no need for eradication efforts. While the building is over 120 years old and has faced occasional regulatory scrutiny, particularly regarding its construction activities, the most pressing recent structural concerns appear to be the primary focus for potential residents to monitor, along with the building's overall age and maintenance history.
