1550 Bay St, San Francisco, CA 94123

Located in San Francisco's Marina neighborhood, the 1550 Bay Street property is a 3-story, 241-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1969, currently owned by the Sangiacomo Family Limited Partnership. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the past two decades, including recent fire safety upgrades with the addition of low frequency sounders and detectors to meet current code requirements (2024), and various plumbing and infrastructure improvements such as pool boiler replacements (2017) and domestic hot water boiler updates (2012).

The property has experienced recurring issues with water intrusion, most notably in Unit B126 where improper deck work has caused persistent problems, and more recently, complaints were filed in 2024 regarding rotting/moldy carpet padding and general maintenance concerns. The building's fire safety systems have required ongoing attention, with multiple violations and complaints documented between 2020 and 2024, including issues with alarm systems, sprinklers, extinguishers, and sleeping area requirements. While most fire safety concerns have been addressed promptly, there is one open violation as of October 2024 related to sleeping area requirements.

The property has also undergone various unit renovations, as evidenced by completed permits for kitchen and bathroom remodels in Units B225 and C244 (2014), and a notable incident in 2023 where a sliding door replacement in Unit B126 was undertaken to address water intrusion issues. A recent complaint from May 2024 regarding lack of hot water on the first floor and construction noise suggests ongoing maintenance challenges. The building's management has demonstrated responsiveness to many maintenance issues, as evidenced by the timely completion of numerous permits and corrective actions, though some persistent problems like the water intrusion in Unit B126 and periodic fire safety violations indicate areas requiring continued attention.
