1015 Francisco St, San Francisco, CA 94109

The 2-story, 3-unit multi-family residential building at 1015 Francisco St in Russian Hill, built in 1953 and currently owned by the Gerald L Shirar Living Trust, has undergone several significant improvements and faced various maintenance challenges over its history. Most recently, in December 2024, there were permits issued for a substantial renovation of Unit #3, including kitchen and bathroom remodels and window replacements, though this work generated a complaint about unauthorized construction that was quickly resolved within one day.

In the 2000s, the building faced several fire safety violations in March 2007 related to fire escape maintenance, fire extinguisher recharging, alarm system certification, and smoke enclosure door maintenance, though these issues were all properly addressed by late April 2007. The property has a documented history of routine inspections in 2006 and 2011, as well as a kitchen and bath remodeling complaint in 2006 that took over two years to resolve. Older improvements to the building include earlier renovation work in 2006 valued at $50,000 and various structural maintenance activities such as reroofing in 1995 and shoring work in 1993.

Recent activities around the property (2024) have included multiple graffiti incidents and some infrastructure maintenance issues, with several cases being resolved by street and environmental services. A fire alarm system incident has been recorded, though it was determined to be an unintentional activation with no injuries. The building's permit history demonstrates regular maintenance and upgrading of the property, with particular attention to Unit #3 as evidenced by both recent and past renovation projects.
