1245 Broadway, San Francisco, CA 94109

1245 Broadway is a 6-unit, three-story TIC building located in the Nob Hill neighborhood, constructed in 1912 and currently owned by Doris Mehler. The property underwent significant seismic safety improvements in 2017 with a completed soft-story retrofit costing $120,000, including the installation of a new Peerless boiler that same year. The building has seen several unit-specific improvements, including a completed kitchen remodel in Unit #1 in 2011 that involved comprehensive updates to electrical, plumbing, and lighting systems.

A window replacement project in Unit #3 was intended in December 2023 but was subsequently cancelled. The building has experienced recurring issues with graffiti in recent months, particularly between October and November 2023, with multiple cases reported and some still pending resolution. There is also a recent concern from April 2024 regarding the renewal of a boiler permit that remains unresolved.

The building's historical records show a cluster of violations in May 2001, primarily related to fire safety and security requirements, including issues with self-closing doors, fire extinguishers, gas utility shutoff tools, and egress obstructions; however, all these violations were abated by July 2001. The property has maintained regular housing inspections over the years (2001, 2008, 2010, and 2017), with no active violations from these routine checks. Recent maintenance activities on record include street space permits in 2020 and various 311 calls mostly related to graffiti and debris on or near the property, with the most recent being a garbage and debris complaint in November 2024.
