The property has experienced several maintenance issues over recent years, with the most significant problems occurring in 2022, including multiple complaints related to plumbing issues (bathtub/shower problems), unsanitary conditions with pests, and water leaks. These issues resulted in both emergency and non-emergency violations.
A comprehensive inspection in December 2023 revealed additional problems in Apartment B, including mold in the bathroom (approx. 40 square feet), malfunctioning mechanical ventilation system, and various maintenance issues including multiple violations related to kitchen cabinet doors. The building has maintained an active response to rodent inspections, with successful passing results as recent as March 2025, though there were instances of rat activity reported in 2024.
