The Allerville Arms, an 18-story Class A building constructed in 1965 with 213 units, has experienced several significant maintenance issues recently, most notably during 2025. In May 2025, there was a building-wide heat and hot water issue followed by multiple water supply problems that required intervention from the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) and resulted in at least 8 individual complaints. Earlier in 2025, the building faced ventilation concerns affecting indoor air quality and flooring issues.

The property has a history of elevator-related complaints, with eight separate reports between 2021 and 2025, though inspections generally found no violations. Following a major construction project, multiple violations were issued in 2021 regarding failure to maintain proper safety standards and documentation, with penalties totaling over $7,000, though these were later resolved. The building's maintenance history reveals recurring infrastructure challenges, particularly relating to water systems and elevator functionality.

Multiple housing maintenance code violations were documented in 2024-2025, including issues with smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, and hot water supply in unit 18B, as well as water leak problems and mold concerns in unit 6D. The property has consistently shown evidence of rodent activity in recent years, though it passed a compliance inspection in September 2024. Notably, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with zero reported cases in the past five years. The Department of Buildings currently has active violations for failure to file external low-pressure inspections for the years 2019-2022, which remain unresolved as of 2023.
