The property has consistently required the filing of annual bedbug reports from 2021 through 2023, with no reported infestations during those periods. A significant recent concern involves two September 2023 complaints regarding illegal hotel rooms and improper vent/exhaust systems, though inspections found no violations in one case and referred the other to Housing Preservation and Development.

Historical records indicate several Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations in 2018 related to construction debris blocking fire escape passages and failure to maintain proper permits, resulting in fines totaling $6,025, though these issues were subsequently resolved. Notably, the building has maintained consistent rodent inspection compliance, passing all inspections from 2015 through 2024, indicating effective pest control measures. The property has active permits from 2018 for electrical and plumbing work, suggesting ongoing maintenance and infrastructure upkeep.
