Google AutoCompleteService returns place with ID not known to PlacesService

I'm having problems with PlacesService.getDetails by "place id" for a result from AutoCompleteService.getPlacePredictions which returns these ids.

Here's my code (also at this JSFiddle):

function initService() {
  var placesService = new google.maps.places.PlacesService(window.document.createElement('div'));
  var autocompleteService = new google.maps.places.AutocompleteService();

  var showAddress = function(input) {
    autocompleteService.getPlacePredictions({ input }, displayTopSuggestion);
  }

  var displayTopSuggestion = function(predictions) {
    var placeId = predictions[0].place_id;
    placesService.getDetails({
      placeId: placeId
    }, function(place, status) {
      console.log(placeId + ": " + status);
    });
  }

  showAddress('401 Park Drive, Boston, MA');
  showAddress('120 Wall Street, New York, NY');
}

This displays "OK" for the first one (cool) and "NOT FOUND" for the second one (confusing):

ChIJdd3kdPR544kRllG3JcXaViQ: OK
ChIJq7N18T1awokRXtu1sjDO7Jw: NOT_FOUND

That is, the PlacesService doesn't know the placeId returned in the results from the AutocompleteService.

Does anyone know what is going on here?

This seems like it may have been a manifestation of a transient issue in the Maps APIs: https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/63069427
