1545 Taylor St, San Francisco, CA 94133

The 6-unit, 3-story apartment building at 1545 Taylor Street in Nob Hill, owned by James & Sunantha Wong Revoc, was constructed in 1907 and has undergone several significant improvements over the past decades. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory soft-story seismic retrofit in 2016 (as a Tier 3 building) at a cost of $37,000, demonstrating compliance with important safety requirements.

The property underwent a comprehensive electrical system upgrade in 2016, including the installation of new 50-amp sub panels for all six units, rewiring, and the installation of smoke detectors and common area improvements with a new 200-amp service. Both plumbing and electrical work was also completed in 2022 for the installation of new washer/dryer facilities, sink, and water heater in the garage. The building's maintenance record shows attention to essential upkeep, including a $12,000 reroofing project completed in 2021.

The property has had three routine housing inspections (2000, 2008, and 2011) which identified various security and safety issues that were promptly addressed, including concerns about door security, fire extinguishers, and smoke detectors, all of which were abated by November 2011. Recent activity around the building primarily involves parking enforcement and maintenance issues, such as graffiti on mailboxes and overflowed city garbage cans, though these do not directly impact building safety or habitability. The building's database shows no active violations or pending issues as of October 2023.
