""It's just plain horrible. This is three years in the making. They know that there's lead, but nothing is getting done.""
""NYCHA staff will work with the resident to schedule the necessary abatement and expedite the carpentry, plastering and painting work.""
A mother in Coney Island is expressing her frustration over the deteriorating conditions of her apartment, which include lead exposure. Sandra Leon's apartment features broken tiles, fractured flooring, and cracked walls. She has repair tickets dating back to 2023, and a NYCHA report from January 2025 confirmed the presence of lead-based paint in her bathroom. Despite acknowledging the issues, no repairs have been made. NYCHA stated they would work with her to schedule necessary repairs and provide lead abatement services.
