577-581 Filbert St, San Francisco, CA 94133

The three-story multi-family residential building at 577-581 Filbert Street, owned by the Gilbert Family 1991 Trust, was constructed in 1906 and contains three units. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the past decade, with the most recent major renovations occurring in 2011-2012, including comprehensive kitchen remodels on multiple floors, bathroom modifications, electrical upgrades (including new subpanels and circuits), and important safety improvements such as the addition of fire blocking and replacement of fire-rated gypsum board to achieve 1-hour fire rating requirements.

Earlier improvements included a substantial foundation upgrade in 2011 addressing dry rot issues in framing and stairs, and the installation of new furnaces in 2013. The building has experienced recurring issues with its alarm systems, particularly between 2010 and 2024, with violations issued in August 2023 and previous citations in 2014 and 2012.

While most fire safety concerns have been promptly addressed, several citations were noted in 2010 regarding various fire protection equipment requirements including extinguishers and sprinkler services. Recent history shows ongoing maintenance and operational compliance, though there have been recent recurring issues with blocked sidewalks by scooters without license plates (noted in December 2024) and a current noise complaint regarding amplified sound electronics. The property has passed all recent routine housing inspections, with no active violations as of the latest reviews.
