The property has experienced several construction-related issues, including three separate Housing Maintenance Code violations in 1997 related to repairs needed in apartment 9K's bathroom, and various construction safety and publicly owned space compliance matters.
Notable complaints include a 2024 construction safety compliance action, a 2023 privately owned public space non-compliance issue, and a 2020 illegal after-hours work complaint.
