The building has experienced recurring maintenance and safety issues in recent years, with significant problems emerging in 2024-2025. The most pressing current concerns include active rodent activity, with multiple inspections in 2024-2025 confirming the presence of rats and resulting in bait application.

There were two rat sighting complaints in late 2024, and various infrastructure issues have been documented, including problems with doors, plumbing fixtures, and safety systems like smoke detectors.
Historical records from 2019 show illegal conversion and unauthorized plumbing modifications, resulting in multiple Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations with penalties regarding unauthorized dwelling modifications and plumbing work. The building has also experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, though these have typically been resolved promptly. The property has several open violations as of 2025 related to failure to comply with inspection requirements for external low-pressure systems and other safety equipment, suggesting ongoing challenges with maintaining required building systems and reporting compliance.
