660 Willoughby Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11206
660 Willoughby Avenue is a 6-story, 24-unit residential building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Herminio Torres and constructed in 1927 as a New Law Tenement. The property has experienced persistent heat and hot water issues, with multiple complaints registered in late 2024 and early 2025, particularly during the period from October 2024 to January 2025 when at least five separate complaints were filed regarding building-wide heat and hot water problems.
The building has also faced challenges with various maintenance issues in 2025, including rodent activity (most recently confirmed in a July 2025 inspection), appliance problems, door issues, and ceiling concerns, with multiple complaints filed between January and April 2025 that were complicated by access issues for inspection purposes. The building's history shows recurring concerns about system maintenance and safety compliance, particularly regarding the elevator, which has had multiple complaints about single device service since 2019, with one violation from 2019 resulting in a $1,250 penalty related to various elevator maintenance issues.
Recent inspections in 2023-2024 revealed several Housing Maintenance Code violations, including inadequate heating in Apartment 6A, heating system access issues, and problems with electrical lighting in public areas. Notably, there was a significant cluster of maintenance issues identified in October 2023 concerning Apartment 1B, including water leaks, mold, ceiling damage, and various repair needs, though many of these violations were subsequently closed in 2024. While the building has experienced periodic pest issues, particularly between 2019-2020 with multiple units affected, recent bedbug reports from 2022-2024 show significantly reduced activity, with no reported infestations in the most recent filings.
