15-21 Tuscany Aly, San Francisco, CA 94133

The two-story, four-unit multi-family residential building at 15-21 Tuscany Alley in North Beach, owned by the David Bellings Living Trust, was constructed in 1912 and has undergone several significant renovations and maintenance work over the years. Most recently, in 2013, the building received substantial improvements including kitchen and bathroom remodels, HVAC upgrades with a new high-efficiency furnace, plumbing work including a shower pan installation, and comprehensive electrical updates. The building's history shows attention to maintenance needs, with earlier improvements including water damage repairs to the exterior staircase in 2003 (costing $5,000), and a significant renovation in 2004 that involved structural modifications between dining and living rooms on the top level.

The property has experienced several maintenance issues that required attention, particularly evident during a cluster of complaints in 2003-2004, including problems with doors, a stove, and sanitation issues, all of which were eventually abated. Historical records show some recurring maintenance challenges, such as a sewer repair in 2011 and multiple kitchen and bathroom renovations. The building's safety features have been incrementally improved over time, with fire sprinkler installation in 1994 and various electrical upgrades to meet modern standards.

Recent records indicate there are currently no active violations, and all historical building violations have been resolved, including illegal short-term rental issues that were abated. The building's fire incident records show only minor cases of CO detector activation (malfunction) and an accident incident with no reported civilian injuries. The property has maintained an active maintenance schedule, with regular updates to meet safety codes and resident needs, though some infrastructure challenges have been documented over the years. The building's recent history shows fewer maintenance issues compared to the early 2000s, suggesting improved building management practices, with the most recent building improvements focusing on modernizing units and ensuring compliance with safety requirements, including smoke and CO alarm installations, complete kitchen and bathroom renovations, and updated electrical systems.
