283 Malcolm X Boulevard, Brooklyn, NY 11233

283 Malcolm X Boulevard is a 4-story, 8-unit residential building in Bedford-Stuyvesant, constructed in 1910 and owned by Isaac Schwartz. The property experienced notable maintenance issues in August 2022, with emergency complaints regarding both heat/hot water and cooking gas systems, though only the heat/hot water issue resulted in violations following an HPD inspection. More concerning is a series of open violations identified in August 2022 affecting apartment 1R, including issues with hot water supply, smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, and gas range supply.

The building has also faced administrative challenges, with open violations regarding required postings in the public hallway, including the agency's housing information guide, bedbug inspection certificate, and building registration number. More recent inspections have shown some improvements, with 2025 bedbug reports indicating no infested units between 2023-2025, and the most recent rodent inspection in June 2025 resulting in a pass. However, there are still open violations from 2022 that remain unresolved as of the latest data in October 2023.

The building's history includes a mix of compliance and failure results in rodent inspections, with the last notable failure occurring in November 2022. Despite the building's age and various violations, the recent bedbug and rodent inspection results suggest improved pest management, though the outstanding violations from 2022 warrant attention. The property has maintained active bedbug reporting compliance since 2022, consistently reporting zero infested units in recent filings.
