The property has experienced significant maintenance issues in recent months, with multiple complaints in March 2025 regarding plumbing problems, including toilet issues and heavy water leaks, as well as reports of mold and unsanitary conditions, though not all complaints resulted in violations. A concerning pattern of heating system problems was documented in early 2025, with multiple complaints about heat and hot water issues in January 2025, including building-wide outages that affected multiple apartments.
The building has also faced elevator-related challenges, with numerous complaints between 2019-2020 about single device service issues and multiple device concerns, though most were resolved upon inspection. Housing Maintenance Code violations reveal ongoing concerns about building systems and safety features. In December 2024, violations were opened regarding window spring balance issues in multiple apartments (B32, B51), though some violations from previous years have been resolved.
The building's fire safety and security systems have required attention, with violations noted for door locking mechanisms and self-closing doors. Most recently, rodent inspections in 2024-2025 showed periodic rat activity, with some inspections passing but others showing ongoing issues. The building's facade and exterior maintenance have been a focus, with active violations regarding the submission of required inspection reports and energy efficiency documentation dating to 2022-2024. While there have been no reported bedbug infestations in recent years (2019-2024), the presence of rodent issues and recurring maintenance complaints suggests ongoing challenges with building systems and maintenance requirements.
