The building has undergone extensive renovations over the past few years, with multiple units receiving kitchen and bathroom remodels, including units 508, 405, 607, 602, 202, 301, and others between 2018-2023.

Recent significant work includes a boiler replacement completed in July 2023, and a new retaining wall constructed along the rear property line in 2019. The property has experienced recurring heating system issues, with complaints about heat and steam pipe problems reported between 2015-2020, including a notable complaint in 2020 regarding heat pipe noises and a 2019 complaint about banging noises near steam heat pipes.

Recent maintenance has included two separate sewage backup incidents in late 2024, and the building experienced multiple fire safety violations in late 2023 related to sleeping area requirements, though these appear to have been addressed promptly.

2025-02-19 00:00:00+00:00NoneHousing Inspection ServicesIn our building, there are three washing machines where it seems like all three are never working and typically one is always out of service. while the company does seem somewhat responsive when we let them know that they are not working, the fix never lasts for more than a week or two and then one or two will be broken and out of service again. in short, these have been the same washing machines for many years and they need to be replaced and the building management simply wont make a long-term fix.
