675 Linwood Street, Brooklyn, NY 11208

The 4-unit, 2-story tenement building at 675 Linwood Street in East New York, owned by Mohammad Uddin, has experienced persistent maintenance issues since at least 2017. Most recently, in October 2024, violations were issued for a mouse infestation in a 2nd floor apartment and inadequate lighting in the 2nd story hall and vestibule areas. There is also an open violation regarding a defective front entrance door lock assembly.

The building has a documented history of pest problems, with several 311 complaints about pests in 2023-2024 that either could not be inspected or resulted in violations. Electrical issues have been recurring, with complaints about outlets and switches in 2023 and 2024, as well as a documented defect in electrical wiring from late 2023. The building has faced multiple challenges with sanitation and maintenance, including an emergency flooring complaint in December 2023, and historical issues with mold, plumbing, and painting concerns that resulted in multiple violations.

Rodent inspections between 2017 and 2018 consistently showed failures to comply with regulations, though more recent bedbug reports from 2021-2022 indicated no infestations during those periods. The building's violation history shows a pattern of unresolved issues, particularly regarding lighting, pest control, and security features. There was also a requirement for annual bedbug reporting as of 2021 that appears to have been addressed, as recent filings indicate no affected units during the specified periods. The property has had some successful remediation of issues, with violations from 2020 regarding a 2nd floor apartment's mice infestation and mold in a bathroom being certified as corrected in late 2020, though new violations emerged in 2024.
