92 Malcolm X Boulevard, Brooklyn, NY 11221

Located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, 92 Malcolm X Boulevard is a 4-story, 3-unit Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Moshe Baum. The property has experienced several maintenance and safety issues over the past three years, with the most recent incident being a sanitation complaint regarding garbage/recycling storage from December 2023, which was ultimately closed with no violations issued.

Between October 2022 and April 2023, the building experienced multiple plumbing, water leak, and mold issues, many of which resulted in violations, particularly affecting housing maintenance conditions. These included problems with Bathtubs/Showers, Flooring, and Paint/Plaster requirements. The building has faced significant regulatory challenges, including several active Department of Buildings (DOB) violations related to the failure to file annual low pressure inspections between 2018 and 2023, and an active violation from December 2023 regarding unpermitted electrical work related to a commercial HVAC unit installation, with a substantial penalty imposed.

Additional safety concerns were documented in 2022 including issues with carbon monoxide detectors, smoke detectors, self-closing doors, and fire retardant material in the 4R apartment. Current records show regular rodent control efforts, with multiple bait applications throughout 2024 and 2025, though recent inspections note rat activity as of February 2025. The building has maintained a consistent record of zero bedbug infestations over the past five reporting periods from 2019 to present, and a recent rodent inspection in March 2025 confirmed bait application, suggesting ongoing pest management efforts.
