540 Stockton St, San Francisco, CA 94108
540 Stockton Street is a 4-story, 11-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1922, currently owned by the Zaleka Partnership LP and located in the Financial District North neighborhood. The building has undergone numerous renovations over the years, with significant unit upgrades occurring between 2007 and 2012, including kitchen and bathroom remodels in units 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, and 9, totaling several hundred thousand dollars in improvements.
Recent maintenance activity includes boiler and backflow system work completed in 2023, with the installation of new 400-amp 3-phase service in 2010 representing a major electrical system upgrade. The property has experienced various compliance and safety issues over its history, with the most recent concerns including a 2024 complaint about entry signaling devices and multiple reports of garbage and debris in 2024. Previous violations included problems with fire safety systems (sprinkler/standpipe systems, alarm systems, and extinguishers), rodent infestations, and unauthorized vacation rentals in several units.
A significant period of unauthorized construction work was reported in 2007-2009, during which time the owner allegedly attempted to convert the building to a boutique hotel. The building has been subject to periodic fire safety inspections, with most issues being promptly corrected, though a recent 2024 fire complaint regarding sprinkler/standpipe systems was found to have no merit. The property has maintained active records with the Department of Building Inspection, demonstrating regular updates and compliance efforts, particularly regarding fire safety systems and unit improvements.
