600 Lincoln Place, Brooklyn, NY 11216
The 18-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement at 600 Lincoln Place in Crown Heights, constructed in 1905 and currently owned by Tom Rosenberg, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past few years. Most notably, in April 2025, multiple complaints were filed regarding unsanitary conditions including mold and pests, along with safety concerns about broken window guards, electrical wiring problems, and flooring issues. Some of these complaints resulted in violations being issued by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD). Earlier in 2025, there were also complaints about cabinets, though these were reported to be resolved via phone communication.
The building's 311 service history shows recurring issues, including a pattern of mold and pest problems. In 2022, violations were issued for obstructed fire escapes, including flower pots on third-story balconies, and there were concerns about fire retardant materials and ceiling repairs in public areas. A series of concerning incidents in 2020 highlighted issues with heating and hot water systems, including scalding water temperatures in Apartment 1C. Between 2018 and 2019, there were multiple complaints and violations related to illegal conversions, electrical wiring issues, and unauthorized occupancy of cellar spaces. The property has maintained a vigilant bedbug prevention record, with no reported infestations in recent years, and underwent rodent inspections in 2023-2025, passing all but one initial inspection in 2024 that noted rat activity.
The building's violation history includes a significant sequence of electrical and safety concerns between 2018-2019, with multiple citations for defective wiring, unpermitted electrical work, and unsafe equipment. There were also violations for inadequate heat and hot water supply, as well as emergency violations related to window guard safety. The property has undergone several HPD inspections and received various violations, though many have been resolved. Recent rodent inspections in 2024-2025 showed improved conditions, with the building passing inspections after previous failures for rat activity. The most recent inspection in May 2025 resulted in a "Passed" status.
