1701 North Point St, San Francisco, CA 94123

The 18-unit, 3-story apartment building at 1701 North Point Street in the Marina neighborhood, constructed in 1936 and currently owned by 1701 North Point LLC, has undergone several significant maintenance and safety improvements over the past decade. Most notably, in March 2024, the building completed a $32,200 fire alarm system upgrade to comply with San Francisco Fire Code requirements, following a previous fire system violation from late 2021. The building has experienced two major renovation periods: in 2012, addressing water damage with extensive repairs to units 104, 204, and 304, including kitchen remodels and electrical work, and in 2017 with a re-roofing project costing $76,900.

Recent infrastructure improvements include the installation of 6 electric vehicle charging stations in 2021 and a resolved sewage backup issue in 2020. The building has maintained its housing code compliance relatively well, with no active violations since 2012, though there have been periodic fire safety inspections resulting in violations, including a recently addressed sleeping area requirement violation from January 2024. Historical records show past heating system issues in 2001-2006, fire escape concerns in 2012, and various maintenance violations, all of which were addressed and resolved.

The building's fire safety history shows several false alarms and system activations, but no actual fire incidents or civilian injuries have been recorded. Recent 311 calls primarily relate to external issues such as street cleaning, encampment reports, and general maintenance, with the most recent being a garbage-related complaint in November 2024. The property underwent a significant kitchen modernization period in the early 1990s (documented for unit 304), consistent with typical building maintenance patterns. The most recent fire safety violations have been promptly addressed, with the building maintaining an active record of compliance with city codes, particularly in regard to its fire alarm system and general maintenance requirements.
