1901-1919 Taylor St, San Francisco, CA 94133

The 6-unit multi-family residential building at 1901-1919 Taylor Street in Russian Hill, owned by Giampaolo Boschetti, was constructed in 1924 and has experienced several significant maintenance and safety events over its history. The building underwent important seismic retrofitting in 1990 with the installation of anchor bolts in the mudsill, and more recently, improvements were made including a dedicated car charger circuit installation in 2019 and utility pole work in 2014.

Several heating-related complaints were documented, with notable issues in 2005 and 2008 when tenants reported inadequate heat and failure to maintain required temperatures, though these violations were eventually abated. A pattern of maintenance concerns emerged in 2005, including fire safety issues (fire escape ladder repair, basement storage compliance), security violations (exterior door self-closing devices, deadlatch locks), and heating problems, all of which were addressed by January 2008. More recent tenant complaints have raised concerns about building conditions, including a 2018 report about window safety and heating issues, and a 2020 complaint regarding recycling container placement blocking a fire exit.

The property has maintained some level of ongoing maintenance activity, as evidenced by multiple building permits for reroofing (1996) and street space work (2010), as well as regular 311 calls regarding parking and street conditions in the vicinity. The most recent planning record indicates installation of antenna and equipment boxes by ExteNet Systems. While the property has experienced various maintenance challenges over the years, most violations have been resolved, though some recent complaints suggest continued attention to building condition is warranted.
