1495 Lincoln Place, Brooklyn, NY 11213

1495 Lincoln Place is a three-story, three-unit New Law tenement building in Crown Heights, constructed in 1901 and currently owned by Sumel Ahmed. The building has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water throughout recent years, with multiple emergency complaints filed between 2018-2021, though some were resolved quickly, such as a October 2018 complaint that was closed after tenants reported heat and hot water were restored.

More concerning are the repeated unsanitary conditions reported, including mold and pest issues in 2018-2021, though inspections often could not be performed due to lack of access. The building's violations history shows persistent safety and maintenance concerns, including open violations from 2018 requiring proper posting of carbon monoxide detector requirements, gas leak procedures, and smoke detector requirements in common areas, along with inadequate heat supply issues documented in Apartment 1.

Recent inspections indicate improved pest management, with Bedbug Reporting from 2019-2025 showing zero infested units during the last five reporting periods, and the building passed a rodent inspection in March 2017. The property has maintained compliance with annual bedbug reporting requirements as evidenced by violations from 2021-2024 regarding failure to file, though these appear to have been resolved based on the most recent filing showing no infestations. While some heating system issues persist, with multiple complaints in 2021, the lack of recent building-wide heating complaints suggests potential improvements, though many past complaints and violations were driven by tenants' difficulty in gaining access for inspections.
