246 Lincoln Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11208

246 Lincoln Avenue is a two-story, two-unit residential building located in Cypress Hills and constructed in 1910, currently owned by Michelle Neugebauer. The property has experienced notable maintenance challenges, particularly during 2020, when multiple complaints were filed related to plumbing issues, including violations concerning basins/sinks and toilets. Other concerns during this period included water leaks, flooring problems, and the presence of unsanitary conditions like pests and mold.

The building's mechanical systems have also shown vulnerabilities, with a December 2020 violation regarding heating/hot water issues and a January 2020 electrical complaint about lighting. More recent records (2023-2025) show relatively improved conditions, with the building consistently reporting zero bedbug infestations in annual reports from 2019 through 2025, and passing rodent inspections as of March 2012. However, several open violations from 2020 remain unresolved, including issues with a broken wood door, waste pipe defects, a cockroach infestation, and concerns about a defective carbon monoxide detector and kitchen window sash in Apartment 2.

The property has undergone some regulatory scrutiny in 2023-2025, with complaints regarding construction practices, though recent inspections (January 2025) found no violations warranting enforcement action. A new permit was issued in August 2024, suggesting recent regulatory compliance efforts. While the building's maintenance record shows improvements in recent years, the persistence of certain open violations from 2020 indicates ongoing attention to building systems and infrastructure may be required.
