1238-1242 Stockton St, San Francisco, CA 94133

The property at 1238-1242 Stockton Street in the Financial District North is a 3-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building with ground floor commercial space, constructed in 1911 and currently owned by Anna W Woo Revocable Trust. The building has undergone significant recent renovations, particularly in 2024, including facade repairs ($40,000), the installation of a hood and duct fire suppression system ($11,478), and extensive restaurant-related improvements including kitchen equipment, ADA compliance updates, and plumbing work ($180,000).

The property has experienced recurring fire safety system issues, with multiple complaints about alarm systems, fire escapes, and extinguishers recorded between 2021 and 2025. Most recent fire safety complaints in 2024-2025 suggest ongoing monitoring may be required, though many historical violations have been marked as abated.

The building has had several infrastructure improvements documented over the years, including the installation of aluminum windows in 1985, kitchen remodeling in 1990, and various plumbing and electrical upgrades in recent years. A singular plumbing complaint from 2002 regarding leaking fixtures was promptly addressed, and while there have been multiple 311 calls in early 2025 regarding garbage and debris on the street, these are related to public spaces rather than the building itself. The property has experienced several false fire alarm activations without injuries between 2017 and 2023, indicating some recurring issues with the fire safety system, though most appear to be unintentional activations rather than actual incidents.
