The two-story, six-unit multi-family residential building at 2164 Taylor Street in Russian Hill, owned by Dale Ming and Sue Minn Wong R, was constructed in 1958 and has undergone several significant safety improvements in recent months. Most notably, in December 2023, a comprehensive upgrade was completed to the fire alarm system at a cost of $29,617, including the installation of low-frequency sounders in sleeping areas to meet current code requirements.

This work was followed in March 2024 by the installation of additional smoke detectors, demonstrating the owners' commitment to fire safety compliance. The building has a history of regular maintenance, including a reroofing project completed in 1990, and has undergone routine housing inspections with only one recorded violation related to smoke enclosure door closers in 2005, which was promptly abated within one month.

The property's recent history shows relatively few internal issues, with the primary concerns being external matters documented through 311 calls between 2013 and 2021, including reports of graffiti, sidewalk defects, and sewer vent odors - all of which were resolved. The building's fire safety upgrades in late 2023 through early 2024 represent the most significant recent improvement, bringing the fire detection and alarm system up to current standards as per San Francisco Fire Code requirements. The property has maintained an active compliance record with only routine violations that have been promptly addressed, showing responsible management of safety systems and building maintenance.
