249 Malcolm X Boulevard, Brooklyn, NY 11233
The three-story, six-unit building at 249 Malcolm X Boulevard in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Felicia Colon, has experienced several maintenance and safety issues in recent years, with the most pressing concerns arising in 2023-2024. Currently, there are two open violations from August 2023 in apartment 2B regarding missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, and an open violation from April 2023 in apartment 3A concerning excessively hot water (over 130 degrees Fahrenheit). The building has shown recurring issues with safety equipment, as evidenced by previous violations in 2023-2024 including defective plaster surfaces in 3A, and various maintenance matters in 3B such as defective vinyl flooring and bathtub issues, though many of these problems were subsequently resolved by June 2023.
The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbugs, with all bedbug reports since 2018 showing zero infestations or re-infested units. Rodent inspections have been generally favorable, with the most recent inspections in 2023 and 2024 passing, though there was one failed inspection in May 2023 for unspecified reasons. The building's maintenance history indicates ongoing challenges with building systems and safety compliance.
A notable outstanding issue is an active Department of Buildings violation from November 2019 regarding a failure to file the 2017 boiler inspection report, though this is somewhat dated compared to more recent concerns. The property has consistently filed bedbug reports annually, with the most recent report in June 2025 covering the period from November 2023 to October 2024, continuing the trend of reporting zero infestations. While some maintenance issues have been addressed promptly, as evidenced by multiple violations being certified as corrected, the presence of open violations as of 2023-2024 suggests some ongoing challenges with timely maintenance response.
