439 Lincoln Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11208
439 Lincoln Avenue is a three-story, six-unit New Law Tenement building located in Cypress Hills and owned by Debby Kohn. The 1910 structure has experienced several maintenance issues in recent years, with the most recent cluster of complaints in April 2025 focusing on paint and plaster issues in both walls and ceilings, which were inspected by HPD with no violations issued. A significant set of violations was recorded in April 2025, including problems with cabinets, unsanitary conditions related to pests, flooring issues, and wall plaster problems, with some violations still requiring correction as per HPD's notice.
Earlier violations from June 2023 highlighted multiple maintenance concerns in Apartment 1L, including water leak issues, lead paint hazards, and the need for proper painting with light-colored paint in the bathroom area. The building's history shows persistent maintenance challenges, with documented issues including unsanitary conditions in the cellar (June 2023), problems with the bulkhead door (2022), and various paint and plaster requirements. While inspections for electrical wiring issues (2025 and 2022) and a gas utility referral (2020) resulted in inspectors being unable to gain access, an electrical wiring complaint from June 2025 was investigated with no violations found.
The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with all filing periods since 2019 showing zero infested units. The most recent bedbug report for 2024 and previous reports consistently indicate no infestation or re-infestation events. A 2019 violation regarding failure to file an annual boiler inspection was ultimately dismissed in 2025. The building passed a rodent inspection in March 2012, indicating previous pest management success.
