The three-story multi-family residential building at 1542-1546 Leavenworth Street, located in San Francisco's Nob Hill neighborhood, was constructed in 1907 and contains five units with ground floor retail space. The property has undergone several significant maintenance and safety compliance updates over the years, with the most recent major work being a reroofing project completed in 2011.

The building has faced multiple safety-related violations, particularly concerning fire safety equipment, with violations recorded in 2001 and 2008 regarding expired fire extinguishers, rusty fire escape cables, and improper maintenance of fire escape drop ladders. A routine inspection in 2016 identified issues with carbon monoxide and smoke alarm compliance, though all violations were officially abated by June 2016. The building's maintenance history shows attention to structural upkeep, with stucco replacement work completed in 1996 and a code compliance project in 1986.

Multiple routine inspections by Housing Inspection Services have been conducted, revealing occasional interior issues such as peeling paint in 2012. The immediate vicinity of the building has experienced various transportation-related incidents, including several complaints about blocked driveways and abandoned vehicles between 2021 and 2024, though these are external to the building's operations.
