1553-1555 Francisco St, San Francisco, CA 94123

The property at 1553-1555 Francisco Street is a three-unit, three-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1926, currently owned by Hebel Living Trust. The building underwent significant improvements in 2015-2016, including the addition of a third unit on the ground floor, complete installation of fire sprinklers throughout the ground floor, and the relocation of boiler room equipment, with these modifications costing approximately $80,000. The building's fire safety systems were significantly upgraded during this period, including the installation of a fire sprinkler flow monitoring system, electrical work, and additional plumbing improvements.

In 2016, the building experienced a fire incident that caused minor damage to a rear wall, which was subsequently repaired. The most recent building work was completed in mid-2023, involving the replacement of two patio doors and repair of patio tile on the second-story balcony. Historical records show several maintenance and repair efforts over the years, including kitchen and bathroom remodels, boiler installations, and compliance work from inspection reports.

The building's plumbing and electrical systems have received consistent attention, with multiple permits issued and completed for various improvements. Earlier issues included a 1996 complaint about unauthorized construction and a 1997 complaint regarding interior maintenance, but these have long since been resolved. Recent activity on the property has primarily involved routine maintenance and improvements, with no current building complaints or safety concerns on record. The most recent three permits - from 2016, 2001, and 1996 respectively - indicate regular updates to the building's systems and features, including kitchen upgrades and boiler work.
