In 2024, there were multiple complaints regarding construction-related dust, including a December complaint about indoor air quality due to dust from construction, and an ongoing complaint from June 2024 about lead dust affecting common areas and apartments.
The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues, particularly in 2023-2024, including multiple unsanitary conditions documented by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), involving mold, pests, and garbage/recycling storage problems - though inspections found no violations in these cases. The building's history shows a pattern of various maintenance challenges, including multiple violations related to gas supply issues in kitchen ranges across different apartments between 2018-2019 (notably affecting apartments 2N, 5N, 7Q, and 10L). Recent construction work has generated several violations and complaints, including issues with sidewalk shed height and pedestrian protection in 2024, and improper posting of tenant protection plans. The building has maintained an active bedbug-free record for the past seven years, with the most recent inspections (up to 2025) showing no infestation cases.
There is a current active violation regarding the failure to file 2023 external low-pressure inspections as of September 2024, and multiple past violations for similar inspection failures from 2018-2020. The property has shown consistent compliance with rodent inspections, passing all inspections conducted since 2010. Recent construction work has generated several Department of Buildings Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations related to construction safety and site management, though most have been resolved with fines.
