25 Capra Way, San Francisco, CA 94123

The 17-unit, 1927 multi-family residential building at 25 Capra Way in the Marina neighborhood has undergone significant and ongoing improvements over the past several years, with particular focus on safety systems and unit modernization. Most recently, in 2023, substantial exterior work was completed including dryrot repair and south siding replacement totaling over $100,000. The building has also seen major window improvements, with the replacement of vinyl windows with custom wood windows in 2023, following a Notice of Violation.

A comprehensive unit modernization project was carried out in 2020-2021, involving the relocation of kitchens, rehabilitation of bathrooms, and installation of washer/dryer units across multiple apartments (201-306), along with electrical rewiring and plumbing upgrades. The property has addressed several safety concerns, including a 2021 upgrade to the fire alarm system to meet current code requirements, installation of low-frequency sounders in sleeping areas, and replacement of smoke detection equipment throughout the building. While there were multiple fire alarm system-related complaints and violations noted between 2007-2024, most were resolved promptly, with the most recent being corrected in February 2024.

Historical violations from 2012-2013 related to mold, floor coverings, garage maintenance, and smoke enclosure doors were all abated by February 2013, and the building has achieved Tier 2 soft-story compliance certification. Recent maintenance includes an ongoing boiler replacement project in 2024, demonstrating continued investment in building systems. The property has experienced recurring issues with driveway blocking, with multiple citations issued between 2023-2025, and occasional reports of garbage and debris issues outside the building. However, these appear to be primarily external maintenance matters rather than building safety concerns.
