38 Grove Street, Brooklyn, NY 11221
38 Grove Street is a two-story, three-unit residential building in Bushwick, owned by Shalom Malul and constructed in 1920. The property was notably affected by a pest infestation in early 2021, specifically involving roaches in the second-floor apartment, which led to violations from the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) requiring remediation of unsanitary conditions and damaged plastered surfaces.
While the building subsequently passed multiple rodent inspections between 2020 and 2023, there was documented rat activity in March 2024, though the property then consistently passed all following inspections. The most recent bedbug report from April 2025 shows no infestations or eradication measures during the reporting period from November 2023 to October 2024.
A complaint registered with the Department of Buildings in April 2022 regarding an unpermitted work appeared to show no violations upon inspection in May 2022. The property's current inspection record shows improved pest management overall, with no recent pest complaints or violations on file since 2021, though the earlier infestation incident and the 2024 rat activity note should be considered when assessing historical building conditions.
