480-490 Greenwich St, San Francisco, CA 94133

The 3-story, 9-unit multi-family residential building at 480-490 Greenwich Street in Telegraph Hill, operated by Rsa 0221 Irrevoc Tr, was constructed in 1924 and has undergone several significant improvements in recent years. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory Tier 3 soft story retrofit in 2017-2018, which involved the installation of additional shear walls and moment connections to improve seismic safety, at a total cost of approximately $57,500.

The building has experienced some maintenance and safety issues in recent years, including three fire safety complaints in 2023-2024 related to electrical systems, extinguishers, and blocked exits, though all were marked as "Condition Corrected." A cluster of renovation work was completed in 2014 in Unit #3, including kitchen upgrades and plumbing modifications, though this work initially generated a building complaint regarding unauthorized construction. The property has a history of routine housing inspections dating back to 1997, with no significant violations on record. Recent maintenance activities have included street space permits in 2011, reroofing work in 2008, and various historical improvements.

The building's systems have been actively maintained, with a recent electrical infrastructure upgrade in 2024. The surrounding area has experienced typical urban issues as evidenced by recent 311 calls, though these are primarily related to street maintenance and parking concerns rather than building-specific problems. While there have been multiple maintenance issues reported through 311, including graffiti, tree maintenance, and parking violations, these are external to the building itself and have mostly been resolved through proper channels.
