1420 Montgomery St, San Francisco, CA 94133

The 4-unit residential building at 1420 Montgomery Street in Telegraph Hill, owned by Duxbury Trust, is a four-story structure built in 1960 that has undergone several significant improvements and faced various maintenance challenges over the years. Most recently, in April 2023, the building received a complete reroofing costing $122,282. The building has a history of fire safety upgrades, including the installation of sprinklers in 2008, and a natural gas earthquake valve added in 2017.

In 2021, there was a fire alarm systems complaint that was found to have no merit, and in 2009, an alarm systems issue was corrected promptly. The building's maintenance record shows attention to infrastructure improvements, including a 28-panel solar PV system installed in 2008, an EV charger installation in 2011, and various plumbing upgrades. Recent 311 calls indicate some ongoing infrastructure challenges, with reports of flooding and water leaks in late 2023, though these were reportedly insufficient in detail for proper investigation.

Historical records from 2005 show several fire safety violations related to gas utility shutoff tools, emergency exits, smoke detectors, and fire extinguishers, all of which were abated by May 2005. The building underwent substantial improvements in 2007-2008, including roof support modifications for future PV panels and various electrical system upgrades. The property has experienced periodic infrastructure issues, with the most recent plumbing-related complaints in 2023, though many past complaints have been resolved promptly through proper channels.
