The Mcdoyle Trust-owned three-unit residential building at 1956-1960 Fell St in Park North is a three-story flats and duplex structure built in 1910 that has undergone significant recent improvements, particularly focusing on fire safety enhancements. Most notably, in September 2023, the building received comprehensive fire safety upgrades including a new sprinkler system with monitoring capabilities, smoke detectors, and related equipment.

These improvements followed previous work in 2022-2023 installing a fire sprinkler system, exercise room modifications, and utility upgrades including new copper lines and gas infrastructure. The building has seen substantial interior renovations over the past decade, with major renovations in 2014 including kitchen remodeling, bathroom additions, and electrical system upgrades across multiple units. Historical records indicate the building experienced several maintenance issues in the 2000s, including paint deterioration and fire escape concerns, but these were all addressed and abated by 2017.

Recent maintenance history shows regular upkeep, with the most recent work focusing on basic infrastructure and public safety improvements. The property has had minimal recent violations, with the most significant being a 2017 routine safety inspection that resulted in several fire safety requirement fulfillments, all of which were quickly addressed and abated. Recent 311 calls primarily relate to routine matters such as street cleaning and minor maintenance issues, with a notable sewage backup incident in August 2024 being the most recent plumbing-related service call.
