435 Lincoln Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11208

The three-story, six-unit tenement building at 435 Lincoln Avenue in Cypress Hills, owned by Mohammed Shahidullah and constructed in 1910, has experienced significant maintenance challenges throughout 2024-2025. Most concerning are the numerous recent violations related to sanitation, including recurring pest infestations (notably in apartment 3L), sewage issues, and garbage/recycling storage problems.

Between March and June 2025 alone, the building has had multiple violations requiring correction, including plumbing issues involving sinks, water leaks, and electrical problems. The property currently has open Department of Buildings violations regarding the failure to file required External Low Pressure Inspections for 2018, 2022, and 2023, which raises concerns about building safety systems. The building's maintenance history shows persistent issues with various systems and safety equipment.

Notable open violations from a December 2024 inspection include problems with the entrance door security, self-closing mechanisms, and multiple safety concerns in apartment 3R, including defective smoke and carbon monoxide detectors and plumbing issues. While there have been some recent pest control efforts, as indicated by the absence of reported bedbug infestations in 2024, the building continues to face challenges with maintaining basic living conditions. Historical records show mixed results in rodent inspections, with the building passing compliance checks in 2017 and 2013, though failing one in 2013 for unspecified reasons.
