The building has experienced recurring plumbing issues, with water supply problems reported in January 2025 (currently open), July 2019, and bathroom fixtures problems in April 2022, though the latter two were closed without violations.

Recent safety concerns include a broken or missing window guard reported in April 2025, though HPD was unable to complete the inspection. The building has passed recent rodent inspections in April 2025 and September 2024, though it received failing results in February 2025 and July 2024 inspections.

There have been environmental controls and safety violations related to elevator maintenance and inspection filings, though some of these have resolved or been dismissed, including a 2023 violation for not filing the 2019 external low-pressure inspection. While the building has undergone several inspections and received various complaints over the years, including concerns about garbage storage (September 2024) and mold (August 2018), most have been resolved without violations being issued.
