1267 Willoughby Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11237
The three-story, six-unit tenement building at 1267 Willoughby Avenue in Bushwick, owned by Chaim Friedman, has a significant and ongoing rodent infestation problem that has persisted throughout 2023 and into 2025. Records show ten rodent-related service requests in 2023 alone, with multiple sightings and conditions attracting rodents reported through the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene.
The building has undergone numerous inspections and treatment attempts, including multiple instances of bait application and findings of rat activity between September 2023 and February 2025, with the most recent inspection in February 2025 finally showing a "Passed" compliance result. The building's maintenance history reveals several concerning issues beyond the rodent problems. Two open violations from 1999 and 2002 remain on record, involving inadequate exterior lighting at the front entrance and defective fire-proof sheetrock ceiling repairs in the cellar, respectively.
Several past violations have been resolved, including repairs to bathroom floor tiles and plastered surfaces in Unit 2L (2003) and self-closing door issues in Unit 3R (2010). Though there were two electrical wiring complaints in 2020 and 2019, inspections found no violations at those times. Notably, the building has maintained a clear record for bedbug infestations over the past seven reporting periods from 2019 through 2025, with zero reported cases or eradications.
