The building's history shows a pattern of maintenance challenges, including recurring bedbug infestations, with five units affected in the most recent reports (2024-2025), though all were reportedly eradicated.

Rodent inspections between 2010-2020 show variable results, with multiple failures for "Other Reasons" and some successful remediation. The property has faced administrative violations regarding energy reporting requirements, with multiple instances of failing to file required benchmarking reports between 2019-2024, though most were subsequently dismissed or resolved. Recent service requests indicate ongoing issues with various building systems, including plumbing, safety devices, and heating. While many complaints have been inspected and violations issued, the data shows a pattern of persistent maintenance challenges that affects multiple systems and common areas throughout the building.
