The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with complaints registered in 2023 (apartment only) and 2021 (entire building), though no violations were found in the subsequent inspections.
A significant cluster of violations was documented in 2018, primarily related to safety requirements including missing heating system notice, defective fire retardant material, and improper storage of household items in public areas, though these were all subsequently resolved. The property has active violations for failing to file required External Low Pressure Inspection reports for 2020 and 2023, and the most recent inspection in 2024 regarding Local Law 188/17 Compliance Inspections showed no violations warranted at the time. There were multiple violations issued in 2020 related to construction safety, including improper storage of materials and failure to maintain safety records, with penalties totaling $10,900, though these were resolved.
The building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbugs, with no infestations reported in the past seven years of inspections. Recent rodent inspections in 2023 and 2024 passed, though there was one failure in May 2023 for unspecified reasons.
