The building has recent violations related to security and safety, including an open violation from August 2024 regarding a missing "In Case of Fire" sign in the lobby and misaligned elevator cab mirror, with a penalty of $625.00. August 2024 inspections revealed multiple violations concentrated in apartment 3G, including issues with mold, water leaks, bathroom repairs, door components, and a non-functioning smoke detector, all of which remain open. The building has had recurring elevator issues, with complaints in 2024 leading to violations being served.
Previous boiler problems were documented in 2022, and there is an active DOB violation from 2021 regarding energy efficiency score display requirements. The property has maintained a clean record for bedbugs and passed recent rodent inspections, though there was documented rat activity in July 2016, with all subsequent inspections showing no issues.
