The building has experienced persistent maintenance issues over recent years, with the most pressing concerns being heat/water problems and pest control. In September 2023, HPD documented inadequate heat and hot water in the building, issuing violations after inspecting multiple apartments.
The building has also faced multiple plumbing emergencies in August 2023, along with various other maintenance issues including window problems, door repairs, pest infestations, and safety equipment concerns such as non-functioning smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. Three Class C violations remain open as of April 2024, primarily relating to hot water and pest issues in specific apartments (2E and 2A). The building's violation history reveals significant structural and safety concerns, particularly around facade maintenance. There are multiple active Environmental Control Board violations regarding failure to submit required examination reports, resulting in substantial penalties.
Notably, there is an ongoing facade safety notification (LL11/98) dating back to 2020 that remains active. The building has a documented history of rodent issues, with inspections showing varying levels of infestation between 2018 and 2024, though recent inspections in 2024 passed. Multiple open violations related to various systems and conditions of the building have emerged since 2020, including water supply issues, window repairs, and problematic building systems.
