1200 Pine St, San Francisco, CA 94109

1200 Pine Street is a three-story, 20-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1910 and currently owned by 1200 Pine LLC. The property has undergone several significant safety and modernization upgrades in recent years, most notably the installation of a new fire alarm system with low-frequency sounders in March 2024, and completion of mandatory seismic soft-story retrofit work with CFC issuance.

Historical renovation work includes extensive unit improvements in 2012 (Units #3 and #2), general infrastructure upgrades in 2002 involving electrical systems, windows, and bathrooms, as well as a fire alarm system upgrade in 2017 that was noted as having "no merit" upon inspection. The building has experienced various maintenance and safety-related issues over the years, though many have been addressed promptly. Notable past violations included multiple interior surface issues (2012), including damaged walls, flooring, and light fixtures.

There have been three fire-related violations since 2005, including a 2023 issue regarding sleeping area requirements that remains open as of October 2023. While there were complaints about construction dust during 2016 work, and historical complaints about various maintenance issues, most recent records indicate proper attention to safety systems, with the most recent fire violation being the only open citation. The building's management has generally responded to regulatory requirements, as evidenced by the completion of the soft-story retrofit and recent fire alarm system upgrades, though there are ongoing concerns about the building's exterior and surrounding area, as evidenced by multiple recent 311 calls regarding garbage and debris in the vicinity.
