The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with emergency complaints filed by tenants in February 2025, May 2024, and multiple instances in 2022, though HPD inspections were unable to gain access to verify the conditions in these recent complaints.

The building was found to have missing safety equipment violations in 2022 (including smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors) in apartment 3A, which were subsequently certified as corrected.

The property has maintained active compliance with bedbug reporting requirements from 2021-2024, showing no infestations. Recent inspections in 2025, 2024, and 2023 passed rodent inspections, though there was one failed inspection in 2019.

Multiple building violations related to external low pressure inspections were issued in 2023 but were subsequently dismissed in 2025.

Despite these ongoing maintenance issues, the building has generally responded to violations by completing required corrections, as evidenced by the majority of violations being marked as "Closed."
