Recent inspections have shown inconsistent results with rodent activity, and while bedbug infestation reports between 2021-2025 show zero cases, the building has faced various maintenance challenges including water leaks, electrical issues, and heating system problems. The property has accumulated multiple housing maintenance code violations, particularly relating to safety equipment like fire escapes and carbon monoxide detectors, which remain unresolved as of 2025. The building's management has previously faced penalties for failing to submit required examination reports of exterior walls, though some violations were dismissed.

The property has undergone various inspections and received multiple housing maintenance code violations between 2018-2025, including problems with heating and hot water systems, electrical issues, and pest control. Recent maintenance activities have included addressing water leaks (both heavy and slow) in May 2025, though some complaints about paint and plaster issues in ceilings and walls could not be verified due to lack of access. The building's history suggests ongoing challenges with building systems and maintenance, particularly in terms of fire safety compliance and general upkeep, with several open violations as of mid-2025 requiring attention. While some improvements have been documented through permit issuance and completed violations, the property continues to exhibit patterns of maintenance issues requiring ongoing attention and resolution.
