120 Montague Street, Brooklyn, NY 11201

120 Montague Street is a historic four-story, 13-unit building constructed in 1849 in Brooklyn Heights, currently owned by John Rosanelli. The building has experienced recurring food establishment issues, with three Department of Health complaints related to food worker hygiene between 2020 and 2025, and one odor complaint in 2023, though all these issues were addressed or closed.

There have been two significant access issues regarding building systems: a plumbing water supply complaint in 2020 and a heat/hot water complaint in 2018, both classified as emergency situations, where inspectors were unable to gain access to the apartments for verification. These complaints were closed but suggest potential concerns about responsiveness during emergencies.

Recent inspections and reporting indicate the building has maintained active compliance with bedbug control measures, showing zero infestations reported in the annual filings from 2019 through 2024, and recent rodent inspections have generally passed, with the last inspection in 2023 showing no issues. The building has two active Local Law 188/17 compliance inspections, though one from 2023 was closed with no violations found. While the property has had multiple health and safety inspections over the years, the relatively recent focus on food establishment issues and the historical heating/water access concerns are worth noting, though there is currently no indication of persistent systemic problems.
