Multiple 311 complaints were filed in 2022 regarding fire escape safety and pest issues, though no violations were found in some cases.

The property has been undergoing electrical work, with three permits issued between 2020 and 2021 for electrical work (EW) under job number 140950282, with one active permit as of July 2021. The building's most recent inspection activity and violation history indicate ongoing concerns with building safety and maintenance, particularly regarding fire safety equipment and sanitation practices.
