The street is plagued by persistent issues, with illegal parking being the most prevalent concern, accounting for a significant 34 of the total 154 complaints. Residents often find themselves navigating a labyrinth of vehicles parked haphazardly, blocking bike lanes, or even obstructing fire hydrants, which could pose serious safety risks in case of a fire.

Noise pollution is another major problem, with a combined total of 60 complaints related to various sources such as residential noise, street and sidewalk noise, and even noise from construction before and after permitted hours. The latter, with 19 complaints, seems to be a chronic issue, likely due to nearby construction projects. Residents also complain about loud music and parties, with 8 such incidents reported.
