228 Malcolm X Boulevard, Brooklyn, NY 11221

228 Malcolm X Boulevard is a 6-story, 15-unit residential building constructed in 2018, currently owned by Michael Roth. The building's recent history from 2021 onwards has shown recurring issues with water-related problems, including slow leaks and damp spots, particularly affecting ceilings, though all these complaints were ultimately closed without violations being issued. The property experienced several notable construction-related incidents during its initial years, with multiple Stop Work Orders in 2019 due to unsafe conditions, inadequate housekeeping, and sidewalk maintenance issues, resulting in penalties totaling $26,900.

Three annual bedbug violation notices were issued between 2021-2023, though all were resolved, and the building has shown consistent compliance with bedbug reporting requirements since then, with no reported infestations in recent years. The building's recent inspections have generally been favorable, with rodent inspections in 2022 and 2024 passing, and no documented infestations or eradication efforts required. The property faced water-related infrastructure challenges in 2021-2022, as evidenced by multiple 311 service requests and Housing Maintenance Code complaints, though these were classified as non-emergency situations.

All 311 complaints were investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), which found no violations. The building underwent several permit processes during its construction phase, with multiple permits issued between 2018-2020 for various construction-related work, including plumbing and equipment installations. The most recent violation record shows one active Building Department violation from October 2021, though no specific description or disposition comments were provided.
