Between 2020 and 2022, there were multiple heat/hot water complaints, including emergency situations in December 2022 and November 2022, though inspections were often unable to gain access for verification.

Inspection records from 2023-2024 show some recent violations requiring attention, including an open violation from April 2023 regarding the failure to file an annual bedbug report, though a similar violation from March 2023 was closed. There are active Department of Buildings violations from May 2021 alleging unauthorized conversion from a 3-family to a 4-family dwelling in the cellar with improper modifications, including installed gas lines and plumbing, as well as parking regulation violations. The building has experienced periodic pest issues, with rodent inspections showing both rat activity and passing results between 2016 and 2023, and several unsanitary condition complaints related to pests were filed in late 2022. Additionally, the building has required various repairs, including work on self-closing doors and interior surfaces, particularly in Apartment 1. Recent records indicate progress on various maintenance issues, with new permits issued in November 2023 for unspecified work, though some historical violations related to failure to file correction certificates remain on record.
