Augrented Insights Report for 1120 Willoughby Avenue

1120 Willoughby Avenue is a 3-story, 6-unit Old Law Tenement building located in Bushwick, constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Sam Frankl LLC. The property has experienced significant regulatory scrutiny in recent years, particularly regarding unauthorized occupancy issues.

Between August and November 2024, there were multiple violations related to illegal conversions and failure to comply with vacate orders, with the owner facing substantial penalties totaling $139,250 for various violations, including defacing vacate orders and maintaining improper means of egress and fire alarm systems. The building is currently under active ECB violations for failure to obey vacate orders and removal of posted vacate orders, carrying a penalty balance of $25,000. Recent health and safety concerns include DOHMH inspections revealing unsanitary conditions related to animals (November 2023) and indoor air quality issues (July 2023).

While the building has maintained an active bedbug management program, with recent reports (2025-2024) showing zero infestations in the past two reporting periods, there have been consistent rodent control challenges. Inspections between 2023 and 2025 show a mixed record, with multiple rat activity reports in 2023-2024, though recent inspections (December 2024 and June 2025) have passed. The building's compliance history shows a pattern of violations related to occupancy and safety requirements, particularly concerning SRO regulations for the first-floor unit and cellar sleeping quarters, suggesting ongoing management and maintenance challenges.
