1332 California St, San Francisco, CA 94109

The 11-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 1332 California Street, owned by Won Marital Trust, was constructed in 1909 in San Francisco's Nob Hill neighborhood. The property has undergone several significant safety upgrades in recent years, most notably a comprehensive fire alarm system upgrade completed in October 2023 costing $40,897, and the successful completion of the mandatory soft-story retrofit program in 2017 (cost: $57,000), bringing it into compliance with current seismic safety standards. The building has experienced recurring fire safety system issues, with multiple fire alarm system violations recorded between 2013 and 2024, including three violations in 2024 alone, though these have typically been corrected promptly.

The property has seen various maintenance and modernization efforts, including the replacement of all federal Pacific sub-panels across units in May 2022, window replacements in 2016, and a significant roof renovation in 2004. Several units have undergone modernization work, with Unit #2 receiving a kitchen and bathroom renovation in 2022, and Unit #11 undergoing multiple improvements including window retrofitting, insulation, and drywall work between 2015 and 2016. Historical issues include water damage and mold complaints from 2006-2016, particularly affecting Unit #5, though these appear to have been addressed through subsequent repairs and improvements.

While there have been several tenant complaints over the years regarding building conditions, including reports of excessive mold and water damage, most of these issues have been resolved through proper remediation. The building's fire incident history shows no civilian injuries, with most incidents being false alarms or system activations. The property has maintained its compliance with major safety requirements, having completed its soft-story retrofit and various fire safety upgrades, though recurring fire alarm system violations suggest ongoing maintenance challenges in this area.
