During this period, non-emergency issues were also documented involving an electric/gas range, general door/window conditions, flooring, and various unsanitary conditions including pest-related problems. More recent history shows a DOHMH complaint regarding rodent/insect/garbage issues in August 2022, which was administratively closed in June 2024. The building has maintained a positive record regarding bedbug infestations, with no reported cases in the past five years between 2019 and 2024, as per the mandated bedbug reporting system.

A single Department of Buildings violation from July 2021 was resolved by December 2022, though no specific description of the violation was provided in the records. The most recent documented issues have primarily involved food establishment complaints to the DOHMH, including a food worker hygiene incident in March 2020 and the aforementioned rodent/insect/garbage complaint in 2022. While the building has experienced several maintenance challenges, particularly in February 2020, the subsequent years show fewer reported issues, with no major emergencies or widespread infestations recorded since that time.
