459 East 95th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11212

The two-story, four-unit residential building at 459 East 95th Street in East Flatbush, owned by Lincoln Thomas, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past several years. Most recently, in March 2023, multiple complaints were filed regarding unsanitary conditions including mold, with one particular incident resulting in violations related to ceiling paint/plaster conditions.

As of October 2023, the building has several open violations from an April 2023 inspection, including issues with fire safety materials, carbon monoxide detector requirements, smoke detector postings, and maintenance of the public hall areas. There are also specific ongoing violations related to bathroom maintenance in apartment 2R, including water leak issues and required paint work. The building has a documented history of heat and hot water problems, with multiple emergency complaints in late 2018 affecting both individual apartments and the entire building, some of which resulted in violations.

Additionally, there were concerns about rodent sightings in 2018, though a November 2018 compliance inspection passed. The property has two active Environmental Control Board violations from January 2020 related to maintenance issues, including excessive debris in the front yard and a fence height violation. While some older complaints have been addressed, the persistent nature of current violations, particularly those related to safety systems and basic maintenance requirements, indicates ongoing property management challenges.
