96 Malcolm X Boulevard, Brooklyn, NY 11221
The 4-story, 8-unit residential building at 96 Malcolm X Boulevard in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Joe Falkowitz, has experienced a number of significant maintenance and compliance issues since 2021. Most notably, there are currently active violations regarding the failure to file external low pressure inspections from 2018 through 2023, including a recent violation from September 2024. The building has also faced rodent-related challenges, with several initial inspections in 2023 and 2024 passing, but a compliance inspection in October 2023 showed failure for other reasons, and an August 2023 inspection noted rat activity.
The property has undergone various inspections and received multiple violations, particularly in 2021, when several safety notice requirements were documented as violations including smoke detector requirements, carbon monoxide detector requirements, and gas leak procedures. These violations were eventually certified as corrected by December 2021. The building has maintained a clean bedbug report record from 2021 through 2024, with no infested or re-infested units documented during these periods. A mold complaint filed in 2021 was investigated but resulted in no violations being issued.
Recent maintenance history includes a general mailbox complaint from 2023 which also resulted in no violations. The building underwent multiple rodent inspections between 2021 and 2025, with most passing, though some noted problems that required follow-up. External inspections and boiler filings appear to be a significant ongoing compliance issue, with violations noted for multiple years of missed filings between 2018 and 2024. The building's overall maintenance record shows periods of both prompt correction of violations and recurring issues, particularly regarding inspection filings and rodent activity.
