Augrented Insights Report for 197 Malcolm X Boulevard

The 4-story, 3-unit tenement building at 197 Malcolm X Boulevard in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Dunstan Tittle and built in 1910, has experienced persistent issues with heating systems in recent years, with at least three documented complaints in 2024 and a history of similar problems in 2020 and 2022. The most recent heating complaint from November 2024 was closed due to lack of access for inspection. The building has also faced multiple safety and maintenance challenges, particularly in mid-2024 when violations were issued regarding doors, unsanitary garbage storage conditions, and multiple fire safety requirements.

These violations, identified during an August 2024 inspection, include missing or defective door latches, absence of proper safety notices, and inadequate garbage receptacles. The property has a documented rodent management history, with consistent rat activity recorded in 2024-2025 and multiple bait applications throughout 2024. While a rodent-related complaint was filed in 2018 and resolved, more recent inspections show ongoing rodent presence.

The building's compliance history shows some improvements, with initial rodent inspections in 2020 and 2022 passing without issues. Bedbug activity appears to have been minimal, with no reported infestations during the 2021-2022 period. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues, as evidenced by multiple 311 service requests and Housing Maintenance Code complaints, though not all complaints resulted in violations.
