1274 Union St, San Francisco, CA 94109

This three-story, six-unit multi-family residential building located at 1274 Union Street in Russian Hill was built in 1909 and is currently owned by Calvin Yee. The property has undergone several significant safety and infrastructure improvements over the past 15 years, with the most recent being an electrical system upgrade from 70 to 200 amps, issued in January 2025, and a comprehensive fire alarm system replacement in 2022 that included new monitoring features and updated safety equipment throughout the building.

The building has a documented history of addressing safety violations and routine inspections, with particular attention paid to fire safety equipment and building access concerns. Notable past violations from 2008 and 2011 included issues related to fire extinguisher maintenance, alarm system certification, and an exterior wood utility ladder that required replacement. The property has maintained an active response to housing inspection requirements, with all cited violations being resolved, typically within short timeframes.

Historical maintenance records show attention to basic infrastructure needs, including reroofing work completed in 2008 and plumbing system upgrades. While there have been multiple 311 calls related to the property's immediate vicinity, particularly regarding graffiti and general street cleaning, these issues appear to be primarily external to the building itself and have all been resolved through standard municipal processes. The building's recent improvements and consistent record of addressing safety violations suggest ongoing attention to resident safety and building maintenance, with no currently active violations on record.
