Augrented Insights Report for 217 Malcolm X Boulevard

The four-story, 10-unit building at 217 Malcolm X Boulevard in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Esther Herman and built in 1927, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues over recent years. The property has shown recurring concerns with compliance, particularly in 2023-2024, when violations were recorded regarding unauthorized use of spaces, including a converted garage and gym facilities. These violations, though resolved, indicated occupancy and usage patterns contrary to building records.

Between 2020 and 2021, there were two emergency complaints related to unsanitary conditions and cooking gas issues, though no violations were ultimately issued following inspections. The building's history shows consistent attention to bedbug reporting requirements, with the most recent filings showing zero infested units. More recent inspections in 2025 and 2024 have passed rodent inspections, though there was a period of rat activity noted in October 2022.

The building has maintained regular bedbug reporting compliance from 2019-2024, with no reported infestations during these periods. Construction safety and maintenance have been the subjects of several complaints and violations, particularly in 2019, when multiple construction-related issues were documented, including problems with fencing, construction documentation, and worker oversight, though these were ultimately resolved. The property's history includes two significant unsanitary condition complaints—one concerning sewage in 2021 and another about cooking gas in 2020—along with multiple 311 service requests primarily related to general maintenance issues.
