1252-1254 Filbert St, San Francisco, CA 94109

The two-unit residential building at 1252-1254 Filbert Street in Russian Hill, owned by Towers One Family Partnership, has undergone several significant structural and infrastructure improvements since its construction in 1908. Most recently, in April 2024, there was an alarm system issue that was resolved by May 22, 2024.

The building has experienced two sewage backup incidents in 2020, requiring attention to the 4-inch sewer vent, and underwent roof replacement in September 2018 at a cost of $12,800. In 2008, substantial work was performed including foundation repairs to the rear corner wall ($15,000) and the installation of a sump drain system, indicating previous water management concerns.

The property underwent various modernization efforts in the early 2000s, including horizontal expansion (1998) and foundation replacement (1997), as well as bathroom and kitchen remodeling work in 1990. More recent improvements include the installation of separate utility meters for the two units in 2012, with associated plumbing and electrical work for laundry facilities. The building has experienced some maintenance and minor incident issues in the surrounding area, including multiple reports of driveway blocking in 2021, a hazardous materials incident (glass) in 2022, and various street cleaning matters, though these occurred in the public right-of-way rather than the building itself.
