The building, constructed in 1913, has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water, particularly evident from numerous complaints in 2025 (most recently in May 2025).

There are also multiple open violations from 2024 that require attention, including problems with carbon monoxide detectors, smoke detectors, and a roach infestation in apartment H5, as well as water leak issues in apartments 1E and 5E. The building's elevator system has been a recurring concern, with verified violations in 2023 and 2025 regarding single-device operation and lack of alternate service. The property has active Department of Buildings violations related to building energy efficiency requirements, including failure to file necessary benchmarking reports and display energy efficiency scores.
