8 heat or hot-water complaints in the last three years (winter 2023–24: 4 · winter 2025–26: 2). Repeated winter clusters suggest a chronic heating problem.

$99,500 in permitted construction work filed since 2016 (6 filings with a declared cost) — a rough measure of how actively the owner maintains the building. Permit costs cover filed construction work only — they do not capture routine maintenance or repairs done without a permit.
| Yes | Built before 1974 (1886) |
| Yes | Six or more residential units (12) |
