There are several open Housing Maintenance Code (HMC) violations related to bedbug reporting requirements dating from 2018-2024, as well as a 2018 violation concerning various safety posting requirements in common areas. The building has faced mechanical and safety concerns over the years, including a significant water leak emergency in 2022, an elevator complaint in 2022, and electrical wiring issues in 2023, though these were generally resolved after inspection.

There are multiple Department of Buildings (DOB) violations related to energy benchmarking reporting requirements from 2020-2023 that remain active. The property has undergone several rodent inspections between 2012 and 2021, with mixed results, including initial failures followed by subsequent passes. Although there were no documented bedbug infestations in the 2017-2018 reporting period and rodent inspections typically resulted in passing grades, the building's record shows repeated issues with compliance regarding health and safety regulations, particularly in the commercial space portion of the property.
