The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues, with the most recent cluster of violations recorded in September 2024, focusing on stair safety, plumbing problems, mold, pest infestation, and wall maintenance. Specifically, violations were documented for defective stairs, leaky kitchen sinks, pest infestations, wall imperfections, and both broken and missing window guards.
The building also has several significant violations related to lead paint hazards, particularly affecting window frames in the third-floor apartment, which require proper remediation under NYC regulations. Prior to these violations, the building underwent various inspections with mixed results. A 2023 complaint regarding illegal hotel rooms was recorded but referred to the Department of Environmental Protection.
