Significant renovation work has been completed during the past decade, including a 2015 kitchen remodel, bathroom remodel, window replacements, electrical upgrades, and the installation of solar panels.

Earlier issues from the early 2000s included concerns about an unauthorized basement unit and illegal occupancy, along with exterior maintenance problems such as peeling paint. A pattern of construction-related complaints emerged in 2015, including noise violations and issues with water drainage from a paved rear yard. The property has received multiple permits for various improvements, including siding repairs, window replacements, and electrical system upgrades, though some permits have expired and required recommencement work, most recently in 2022. The building's maintenance history shows a mix of regulatory compliance and ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly regarding exterior paint and lead hazard management.
