Augrented Insights Report for 49 Willow Street

49 Willow Street is a 5-story, 52-unit residential building constructed in 1924 and currently owned by Russell Harkavy. The building has experienced several maintenance issues in recent years, with the most pressing being a heat and hot water outage affecting the entire building in January 2025, which was resolved shortly after inspection.

The property has a pattern of door-related issues, particularly in early 2024, with multiple complaints about door frames and doors, including emergency complaints that led to one open violation regarding a missing heavy-duty mortise lock set on the front entrance door. Security concerns have been documented, with violations in 2022-2024 related to non-self-closing doors and obstructions in fire escape egress.

The building has a history of sanitation concerns, with multiple complaints about garbage/recycling storage in 2024 and a significant pest infestation incident in 2022 (apartment 2A) that required remediation. Three bedbug infestation reports were filed between 2020-2022, though the most recent 2023-2024 report shows no active cases. While there have been no recent rodent issues (as per 2017-2015 inspections), the property has outstanding Department of Buildings violations from 2023 related to failure to file external low-pressure inspections for 2021, which remain active as of the latest data available.
