1521 Chestnut St, San Francisco, CA 94123

The 2-story, 5-unit multi-family residential building at 1521 Chestnut Street in San Francisco's Marina neighborhood, owned by the Gill Gee Survivors Trust, has undergone several significant improvements since its construction in 1924. Most noteworthy is the completed mandatory soft-story retrofit program (Tier 3), which was addressed in 2016 at a cost of $80,000, bringing the building into compliance with seismic safety requirements.

The building has a relatively clean record regarding safety violations, with a cluster of citations in February 2000 related to fire safety, security, and gas utility requirements, all of which were resolved within approximately six weeks by March 31, 2000. Three routine housing inspections were conducted in 2006 and another in 2016, none of which have resulted in any permanent violations. The building's maintenance history shows attention to structural and safety concerns, with historical permits for reroofing (1998) and shoring work on a retaining wall (1987), though these permits are now expired.

More recent infrastructure issues have primarily involved the public right-of-way, with multiple 311 calls regarding pavement defects in March 2016, which were referred to the San Francisco Water Department and BSM for repairs. There have been some minor neighborhood issues recorded through 311 calls, such as illegal postings (2020) and reports of waste (2020), but these are not directly related to the building's condition or management. The property appears to have been well-maintained regarding major systems and safety requirements, with no recent building violations or complaints on record since the 2016 routine safety inspection.
