64 Lincoln Road, Brooklyn, NY 11225

64 Lincoln Road, a 6-story New Law tenement built in 1926 and owned by Aron Witzniter, has experienced persistent heating and maintenance issues over the past several years. Most notably, there have been multiple heat and hot water complaints in late 2024 and early 2025, with several resulting in HPD inspections that either found no violations or resulted from difficulties accessing apartments for inspection.

A significant cluster of complaints in June 2025 indicates ongoing maintenance challenges, including unsanitary conditions (garbage storage, mold, and sewage), electrical issues (lighting, outlets, and a persistent flooring problem), and various other maintenance needs. The building has also been subject to multiple rodent inspections and treatments throughout 2023-2025, with several reports of rat activity, though recent inspections show bait has been applied. The property has a history of violations and complaints suggesting various safety and maintenance concerns, including building stability concerns in mid-2025, a 2024 violation regarding an inoperative elevator door restrictor, and multiple housing maintenance code violations related to individual apartments.

Notable individual apartment issues included pest infestations (both roaches and mice), water leaks, and door problems in Apartment 2G during 2024. The building has undergone some improvement work, as evidenced by multiple permits for electrical and plumbing work issued between 2019-2020, though there were also complaints about work being performed without proper permits in 2020. While the building's bedbug reports indicate minimal activity over the past several years, the frequency of heating issues, maintenance complaints, and pest control interventions suggests ongoing challenges with building systems and general maintenance that are being addressed through inspections and service requests.
