The building has faced several significant maintenance and compliance issues over the past few years, most notably concerning bedbug infestations.
While there have been periodic infestations reported from 2018 through 2022, the most recent bedbug report from January 2025 indicates no current infestations. The elevator system has been a recurring concern, with a single-device failure in late 2022 that resulted in violations, though these were subsequently resolved.

Housing Maintenance Code complaints regarding the intercom system and a rat sighting in 2022 were investigated but resulted in no violations. Additional violations were noted related to fire safety signage and maintenance requirements, though many have been resolved or dismissed, including a benchmarking report filing violation that was confirmed as submitted. The building's permit history shows multiple permits issued between 2018-2019 for electrical and plumbing work, indicating ongoing maintenance and infrastructure upkeep.
