The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with emergency complaints filed in March 2023 and June 2024, both affecting the entire building, though heat and hot water were reportedly restored in each case. Recent inspections in 2023-2024 revealed several open violations related to safety and maintenance requirements, including the need to post proper notices regarding carbon monoxide detectors, gas leak procedures, and bedbug reporting requirements.
The building also faces active violations for failing to maintain required safety signage in common areas, including indications of housing information resources and the building's registration number.

There is an active complaint from 2024 regarding compliance with Local Law 188/17 requirements.
The elevator system has been subject to scrutiny, with a violation issued in 2023 for multiple devices on the property. While the bedbug reporting period from 2021-2022 showed no confirmed infestations, the building's violation history includes various other outstanding infractions requiring attention. As of July 2025, the building's records indicate persistent issues with maintenance compliance, safety requirements, and basic services such as heat and hot water.
