The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues throughout 2025, with multiple complaints regarding unsanitary conditions, including pests and water leaks, particularly affecting Apartment 3E. Recent complaints from June 2025 involve emergency issues with cabinets, flooring, plumbing, and mold, all of which remain open as of July 2025.

The building's maintenance record shows persistent problems with heat and hot water systems, as evidenced by both open and closed complaints in 2025. The building has a history of rodent activity, with recent inspections in 2025 showing both passed and failed results, suggesting ongoing pest control challenges. Compliance inspections from 2023-2024 generally passed, though there have been repeated complaints about rats.

In late 2024, multiple violations were issued for Apartment 3E, including missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, water leaks, and various infrastructure issues, though most were certified as corrected by January 2025. A bedbug infestation was reported and theoretically eradicated in late 2024, marking the first such occurrence in several years of reporting. The property has undergone regular Department of Buildings inspections, with a recent illegal commercial use complaint resulting in a violation in June 2025.
