192 Malcolm X Boulevard, Brooklyn, NY 11221

192 Malcolm X Boulevard is a 4-story, 18-unit New Law Tenement building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Pincus Schwimmer. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues in early 2025, with multiple complaints filed between February 16-20, all of which were closed after inspectors found services had been restored. Additional significant concerns during the same period include two reports of unsanitary mold conditions (January-February 2025), problems with missing signage (February 2025), and a combination of pest-related issues including rodent activity in multiple inspections throughout 2017-2024.

The most recent rodent inspection in July 2024 passed, suggesting improved conditions at least by mid-2024. The building has several outstanding maintenance issues as of 2024, particularly in Apartment D2, where there are open violations for water leaks and defective plaster surfaces. Historical complaint records show attention to various building systems, particularly the boiler system, which had multiple complaints in late 2018.

The property appears to have maintained a regular schedule for bedbug reporting, consistently showing zero infested units between 2020-2024. Two active ECB violations from 2018 remain open, including one for unpermitted commercial equipment installation in the ground-level commercial space with a penalty of $6,250. The building's documented history shows persistent but varying issues with building systems and pest management, though recent inspection results indicate some progress, particularly regarding rat activity.
