Between January and March 2025, there were multiple complaints about heat and hot water problems affecting various apartments and the entire building, with violations issued during some inspections.
Additional recent issues include a heavy water leak and problems with wall and ceiling maintenance reported in March 2025, though HPD inspections were unable to gain access to verify these complaints. The building has also experienced pest control challenges, with violations documented in late 2024 for rodent and insect infestations in apartments 4B and 4C. Historical records show ongoing maintenance concerns, including two active violations from 2019 and 2023 for failure to file required boiler inspections.
