Augrented Insights Report for 222 Malcolm X Boulevard

The 4-story, 4-unit residential building at 222 Malcolm X Boulevard, owned by Joseph Yaakovzadeh and built in 1927, is currently facing multiple pressing issues as of mid-2025. Most significantly, there is an open heat/hot water complaint filed in November 2024, which remains unresolved, indicating potential serious impacts on tenant comfort. The building has also experienced recent electrical and gas supply problems, with multiple violations issued in November 2024 regarding inadequate electric service and gas supply to fixtures throughout Apartment 3.

This unit has also been cited for mold infestation, window issues, and various other maintenance problems, including broken window counterbalances and an unsanitary condition violation. The property has a concerning history of safety compliance issues, particularly regarding illegal occupancy concerns. In March 2023, multiple violations were issued relating to illegal occupancy of what was supposed to be a 4-unit residential building, with penalties totaling $25,000 related to the lack of required fire egress and sprinkler systems.

The building also shows persistent maintenance oversight, as evidenced by multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2023-2024 related to failed inspections, including six active violations for failure to file external low-pressure inspections from 2018-2023, as well as an outstanding boiler inspection violation from 2020. However, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbugs, with zero infestations reported in the past five years, and recent rodent inspections in 2024-2025 have passed, suggesting improvements in pest control management. The sequence of recent complaints and violations indicates ongoing challenges with building maintenance and code compliance, particularly affecting the top-floor Apartment 3.
