Recent maintenance records show the building passed rodent inspections consistently from 2017 through 2024 and indicates active management of bedbug infestations, with one unit reported infested and successfully treated in both 2024 and 2025. The property has documented several infrastructure concerns, including a boiler violation from October 2021 for leaking tubes that remains active with a penalty of $625.00, and various Housing Maintenance Code violations related to safety equipment and building signage from 2018 that appear unresolved.
While there were also violations regarding benchmarking reporting requirements and energy efficiency displays between 2018 and 2022, these were dismissed or resolved, indicating improved compliance with energy reporting obligations.
