54 Willoughby Street, Brooklyn, NY 11201

54 Willoughby Street is a 4-story, 3-unit commercial building constructed in 1920, currently owned by Albert Laboz. The property has experienced several significant maintenance and health-related issues in recent years. Most notably, as of February 2025, there is an ongoing food poisoning complaint under investigation by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH).

The building's recent history shows consistent monitoring for pests, with violations recorded in 2024 and 2022 related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as required by HPD rules. The building experienced a heat and hot water outage in November 2022, though these services were reportedly restored within days of the complaint. The property has demonstrated some concerning patterns of health and safety maintenance, including rodent activity in early 2018 (with multiple bait treatments applied between February and March 2018) and a rat activity report in January 2018, though subsequent rodent inspections in 2023 and 2018 showed passing results.

Two notable violations remain open as of the latest data: one from 2022 relating to heating system access notification requirements, and another from 2024 regarding bedbug reporting compliance. The building has undergone some permit activity, with at least one issued permit in August 2019 for unspecified work. The property's documented history suggests ongoing challenges with timely compliance to health and safety regulations, particularly related to pest management and building systems maintenance.
