386 Lincoln Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11208

The property at 386 Lincoln Avenue, a 3-unit, 2-story building constructed in 1899 and owned by John Reyes, has experienced several significant maintenance and compliance issues in recent years. Most notably, there has been a persistent failure to submit the required annual bedbug reports for three consecutive years (2022, 2023, 2024), resulting in open Class A violations.

A concerning cluster of issues occurred in December 2021, when violations were recorded for heat and hot water problems, gas range issues, and appliance problems including a refrigerator malfunction. These resulted in multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations, including inadequate gas supply to the kitchen range and lack of hot water throughout the 1st floor apartment. Safety concerns were also documented during this inspection period, with violations noted for missing carbon monoxide detectors and smoke detectors in the 1st floor apartment.

The building's inspection history shows some attention to rodent issues, with an initial inspection in 2017 resulting in failure for "Other Reasons," while a 2012 inspection had passed. The property's age and these documented maintenance issues suggest ongoing challenges with building systems and regulatory compliance, particularly regarding safety equipment and pest management protocols. While some specific violations from December 2021 have been addressed (as indicated by their closure), many violations from that period remain open, including those concerning bedbug reporting requirements that have persisted into 2024.
