439 Lincoln Road, Brooklyn, NY 11225

The two-story, five-unit building at 439 Lincoln Road in Prospect-Lefferts Gardens, owned by Hesrh Zarchi and constructed in 1920, has experienced several notable incidents over recent years, with the most significant occurring between 2020 and 2021 during a major construction project. In July-August 2021, there were serious safety incidents including a partial collapse of the second-floor wall and roof during demolition work, resulting in injuries to two workers and multiple construction safety violations. This construction project led to multiple ECB violations in May 2023 pertaining to unsafe scaffolding conditions, with penalties totaling $10,000, though these were subsequently resolved.

The building has maintained consistent compliance with bedbug reporting requirements since 2022, with no reported infestations in the most recent filing period (2023-2024). The property underwent regular inspections and received permits for various works between 2021 and 2023, including multiple alteration and foundation permits. Housing Maintenance Code violations have primarily related to bedbug reporting requirements, with repeated violations between 2021 and 2024, though these appear to have been resolved with the most recent filing showing no infested units.

While there have been several Department of Buildings complaints regarding construction safety compliance and debris concerns between 2020 and 2023, most were either closed without violations or resulted in resolved conditions. The building's rodent inspections from 2010-2013 showed mostly passing results, with only one failure for "Other Reasons" in 2011, though this appears to have been addressed. In summary, the building has had its share of maintenance and safety compliance issues over the years, particularly during construction work in 2021, but has generally demonstrated compliance with housing maintenance requirements in recent years, with no significant ongoing safety concerns reported as of 2024.
