The building has a documented history of various maintenance challenges, including recent heater and hot water problems in January 2025, mold issues that were closed in the same month, and multiple instances of water leaks.
Notably, there have been persistent pest problems, with documented rodent and bedbug infestations between 2019 and 2024. Housing Maintenance Code violations in late 2024-2025 indicated issues in Apartment 3A, including infestations of roaches and mice, inoperable safety devices, and various maintenance deficiencies.

Environmental Control Board violations from 2021-2024 suggest various safety and maintenance issues, including problems with fire escape functionality, construction materials accumulation, and maintenance of safety equipment. The property has undergone some remediation, as evidenced by closed complaints regarding heat/hot water issues, mold, and other matters in early 2025, though several complaints remain open as of April 2025. The building's management has experienced challenges in promptly addressing violations, with multiple instances of failure to certify corrections on immediately hazardous (Class 1) ECB violations between 2020 and 2022, though these violations were eventually dismissed. Recent inspection records indicate ongoing efforts to manage pest control through regular bait applications, with the most recent rodent inspections showing trap application in 2022.
