28-30 Bellair Pl, San Francisco, CA 94133

The three-story multi-family residential building at 28-30 Bellair Place in Telegraph Hill, owned by Barbara Stauffacher Solomon, was constructed in 1906 and currently contains two units. The property has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the years, with the most substantial work occurring in 2014, which involved addressing water damage on both levels, upgrading electrical and plumbing systems in two bathrooms and laundry rooms, replacing water heaters, and improving safety features such as relocating water heaters and updating laundry facilities to meet current codes.

This work, totaling approximately $25,000, also included electrical improvements such as replacing two sub-panels and correcting various code violations. Most recently, in August 2024, the building was cited for serious safety concerns regarding blocked fire escape routes and egress obstruction due to vegetation growing from the front sidewalk through the fire escape. This violation remains open and is classified as impacting exits/fire escape systems.

The building's maintenance history shows attention to basic upkeep, including multiple roof replacements (1996 and 1999), and various interior improvements and code compliance updates. Previous issues have included a 1999 violation for dry rot on decking and rails, which was subsequently corrected. The property has experienced some environmental maintenance challenges, as evidenced by 311 calls regarding tree issues in the past, including a damaged tree removal in 2019 and an overgrown tree issue reported in 2014.
