    Review Summary for 57 Lincoln Road
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent tenant reviews for 57 LINCOLN ROAD in Brooklyn, NY 11225 depict mixed sentiments. Tenants appreciate the location, proximity to the park, and friendly neighbors. However, consistent issues emerge regarding cleanliness, pest control (roach infestation), package theft, and maintenance neglect (e.g., leaking ceilings, poor garbage management). Suggestions include regular cleaning of common areas, improved pest control practices, and increased building maintenance. While some tenants approve of the owner and recommend staying due to positive aspects like water pressure and neighborhood charm, unresolved maintenance issues and cleanliness concerns remain prevalent.

    Superintendent Negligent, Doesn't Maintain Property
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Location and some nice neighbors.
    Cons:
    Superintendent Cruz is completely negligent. Hallways and stairs are not cleaned. Basic litter outside on building grounds are not picked up, which accumulates making entrance into the building an eyesore. Trash bin area in front of building is not kept clean. Poor treatment of tenants when they complain to him.
    Advice to owner:
    Fire superintendent and hire someone that actually cares about their job.

    Dirty Roach infested
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The benefits of the building lie primarily with its proximity to the park
    Cons:
    Roach infested. Like really bad. The little German roaches and the big ones. I really have to pester the super for an exterminator to come. The exterminator says they will come every two months but once they perceive the roach problem is solved they’ll stop coming and the roaches come back. Also packages get stolen all. The. Time. We got a new package cage but it is so small so the packages pile up and are difficult to dig through to get your package. The package cage also gets broken into a lot. The ceilings leak, both in the apartments and in the hallways and entrance. The front door is regularly broken into.
    Advice to owner:
    Rent is expensive so why not invest some of the rent we’re paying back into the building we live in
