The property has experienced recurring pest-related issues, with the most recent complaint about unsanitary conditions due to pests filed in October 2024, following a similar complaint in June 2023, and multiple reports between 2020-2021. Notable maintenance issues include water leak problems in both common areas and individual apartments, with violations issued in 2024 regarding leaks in the 4th story public hall stairs.

The building has had multiple violations related to building safety and maintenance, including fire safety concerns in 2023 about self-closing doors and accumulation of refuse in common areas.

The building has maintained an active bedbug management program, showing zero infested units in the latest reporting period (2023-2024), and all previous infestations were reportedly eradicated. There have been several violations related to failure to file required safety inspections and reports, though most have been dismissed or resolved.

The property has been subject to multiple Department of Buildings inspections and violations over the years, though most recent violations (2024) were dismissed. Previous violations included safety concerns about self-closing doors and refuse accumulation in common areas, as well as issues related to the building's heating and hot water systems.
