Augrented Insights Report

The 9-unit, 3-story apartment building at 595-599 O'Farrell Street in the Tenderloin, owned by Huynh Huy Tan and built in 1918, has undergone several significant improvements in recent years, particularly in fire safety. Most notably, in 2021-2024, the building received substantial fire safety upgrades including a new fire alarm system, installation of low-frequency sounders in sleeping areas, and a new water heater upgrade. The property has experienced recurring fire safety inspections and complaints, with issues primarily related to alarm systems and extinguishers between 2017-2024, though records indicate these were generally addressed promptly as conditions corrected or found to have no merit.

The building's maintenance history shows regular upkeep, including a kitchen remodel in Unit 4 in 2016 and plumbing improvements, though there was one notable incident in February 2024 involving exhaust flue smoke migration from the ground floor restaurant into residential areas, which was resolved by March 2024. The property has been subject to routine safety inspections over the years, with several violations and complaints primarily focusing on fire safety compliance between 2008-2024. Recent violations in March 2024 related to fire escape ladders, compliance affidavits, and gas utility shutoff requirements were abated by April 2024.

The building's infrastructure maintenance includes a reroofing project from 2008 and various electrical and plumbing improvements. Recent 311 calls from January 2025 regarding encampments and garbage debris have been resolved, and the property has undergone multiple inspections to ensure compliance with housing codes, though past issues from 1998 regarding heat and a gutted commercial space were quickly addressed. The ground floor commercial space has operated as El Tesoro Taqueria & Grill, with various permits and inspections noting its presence since 2023.
