694 Lincoln Place, Brooklyn, NY 11216
694 Lincoln Place is a four-story, 40-unit New Law Single Room Occupancy building located in Crown Heights and owned by Svein Jorgensen. The building, constructed in 1929, has experienced persistent rodent issues, with multiple inspections in 2024 and 2025 showing rat activity and the application of bait in December 2024.
The property has faced several significant maintenance challenges, including multiple unsanitary condition complaints related to pests (closed without violations by HPD), and various safety and infrastructure concerns. In July 2024, multiple violations were documented including water leaks, defective fire-retardant materials, and flooring issues in public areas, though these were subsequently certified as corrected by September 2024. The building has a history of various system maintenance issues, including plumbing problems with bathtubs/showers in July 2023, sprinkler system inspections in October 2023, and multiple complaints about electrical appliances.
A concerning active violation from February 2023 regarding boiler issues remains on record, and the premises was issued a penalty for multiple environmental concerns related to the chimney system in February 2023. While there have been no bedbug infestations reported in recent years (with consistent zero counts from 2021 to 2025), the building continues to grapple with pest control challenges as evidenced by recent inspection results. Despite these various issues, many recent service requests have been closed without finding violations, though this does not necessarily indicate resolution of the underlying problems.
