The property has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water, as evidenced by two emergency complaints in late 2023 (November 13 and November 28) affecting both the entire building and individual units. Additionally, there has been a persistent rodent problem, with multiple inspections showing rat activity between 2022 and 2024, though bait has been applied during recent inspections (most recently on November 28, 2023).

The building also has several open Housing Maintenance Code violations as of late 2023, including requirements to post various safety notices related to carbon monoxide detectors, smoke detectors, and building registration, as well as a requirement to file an annual bedbug report. The property has undergone multiple inspections and service requests in recent years, showing a pattern of sanitary concerns. In 2023 alone, there were multiple complaints regarding unsanitary conditions, including issues with garbage/recycling storage (May 2023) and pests (October 2023).

Three separate rodent-related complaints were filed between 2022 and 2023. The building's violation history also indicates recurring failure to maintain proper documentation and signage, with multiple citations for not posting required safety notices in common areas. While some violations have been addressed through inspections and corrections, many remain outstanding as of late 2023, suggesting ongoing compliance challenges for the property owner.
