The property has experienced several significant maintenance issues over recent years, most notably a series of electrical problems in June 2022, including a power outage and outlet/switch issues that resulted in HPD violations.
There was also a concerning incident in January 2019 involving a building-wide heat and hot water shutdown, though heating was reportedly restored shortly thereafter. More recent violations discovered in December 2024 suggest ongoing safety concerns, particularly in apartment 19B, where both smoke and carbon monoxide detectors were found to be missing. The building has undergone various construction and maintenance work since 2019, with multiple permits issued for electrical and plumbing work between 2020-2022.
There have been several enforcement actions related to construction safety, including a October 2024 violation concerning unprotected trees during alteration work, and a 2023 violation regarding non-conforming scaffold installation around the cupola. The property has maintained good pest control record, with zero bedbug reports filed since 2019 and passing rodent inspections observed in 2024, 2023, and 2022. Building management has generally addressed maintenance issues as they arise, though some violations remain open as of the latest available data, including an active elevator violation from 2019 related to inspection/testing requirements.
