150 Francisco St, San Francisco, CA 94133

Wharf Plaza I, located at 150 Francisco Street in Telegraph Hill, is a 4-story multi-family residential building containing 96 units, constructed in 1983. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the years, with the most recent major work being a comprehensive fire alarm system upgrade completed in 2022 at a cost of $131,000, which included the installation of new control units, detectors, and speaker/strobe devices.

Other substantial maintenance projects have included a complete roofing system replacement in 2020 ($876,777), extensive waterproofing work in 2018 ($1,179,082), and the installation of a solar PV system in 2021 (58.065 kW). The building's safety systems have received regular attention, with multiple fire alarm system upgrades and prompt responses to fire alarm incidents, though there have been some recurring false alarms and system activation issues recorded between 2006 and 2020, all of which were classified as unintentional with no fire-related injuries. Historical maintenance records show various infrastructure upgrades, including plumbing improvements such as boiler and tank replacements, and electrical modifications including exterior site lighting upgrades in 2016.

The building has experienced occasional maintenance challenges, as evidenced by a 2019 complaint regarding dust from construction work affecting neighbors with respiratory conditions, and a 2000 sewer-related complaint about rodent activity. Recent activity (January 2025) has primarily consisted of external maintenance issues such as overflowing city garbage cans and sidewalk accessibility concerns, though these are more related to street conditions than building operations. The building's management has generally responded promptly to maintenance needs, as demonstrated by the completion of multiple significant improvement projects over the years, including the replacement of windows, fire alarm systems, and the installation of modern safety features.
