2914-2916 Franklin St, San Francisco, CA 94123

The property at 2914-2916 Franklin Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in the Marina neighborhood. Built in 1929, the building has undergone significant improvements and modifications over the past three years, with the most recent activity involving the replacement of wall heaters with electric baseboards in the ground floor office in August 2023. Major renovations in 2023 included the addition of an office room and bathroom, installation of a new tankless water heater, and various window modifications.

The building has seen substantial improvements in 2021-2022, including voluntary structural strengthening with steel moment frames, interior remodeling of the top unit, and the addition of a private roof deck. Essential infrastructure upgrades during this period included a new water main installation and sewer lateral replacement. The building history shows consistent maintenance and upgrading of the property, though there was a recent building violation regarding a broken glass window pane in September 2024, which was abated by mid-October 2024.

There have been three similar broken window incidents previously, with the most recent occurring in September 2024. The property underwent a tenant buyout in January 2020, with one tenant receiving $50,000. The building's systems have been regularly updated, including electrical upgrades for the new office space and plumbing improvements throughout. While there have been several garbage and debris complaints in the vicinity (all resolved), most concerns appear to be related to parking enforcement issues, with multiple reports of blocked driveways, particularly involving Tesla vehicles in 2023.
