805 Leavenworth St, San Francisco, CA 94109

The 10-story multi-family residential building at 805 Leavenworth St, owned by Primo Segundo N V, was constructed in 1924 and contains 100 units. The building has undergone numerous safety and maintenance upgrades over the past decade, with particular attention to fire safety systems including multiple fire alarm system upgrades, sprinkler installations, and fire safety-related improvements between 2014-2022, most recently in 2022 when the fire alarm system was upgraded to comply with San Francisco Fire Code requirements. Significant electrical work has been performed, including the replacement of a melted 60-amp fused service disconnect in 2017 and emergency main switch replacement in 2016.

Recent concerns include a recurring issue with the building's elevator system, with the only basement-access elevator being out of service as of May 2024, creating access challenges for waste disposal. There is also an active violation from October 2023 regarding sleeping area requirements, and multiple fire code violations were issued in late 2023/2024. The building has a history of water-related issues, as evidenced by a 2015 complaint regarding water damage in 21 units and concerns about lead exposure.

Various renovation and maintenance work has been completed over the years, including kitchen and bathroom renovations in multiple units, fire sprinkler installations, and roof work. The property has experienced recurring fire safety violations, with the most recent documented violations in November 2024 relating to fire command center features and test maintenance documentation, though many previous violations have been abated. The building has also faced accessibility and elevator-related challenges, particularly noted in complaints from 2014 and more recently in 2024.
