2727 Polk St, San Francisco, CA 94109

The 2727 Polk Street property is a 3-story, 7-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1923 in the Russian Hill neighborhood, currently owned by 988 Harrison B LLC. The building has undergone several significant improvements in recent years, most notably completing a mandatory soft-story seismic retrofit in 2015 (Tier 3 status) which included the installation of new plywood shearwalls and concrete grade beams, followed by revisions to address unforeseen conditions. Recent electrical work in 2023 involved comprehensive wiring updates in Unit 7, including subpanel relocation and the installation of a new 50-amp line, indicating ongoing maintenance and infrastructure improvements.

The building's maintenance history shows attention to structural and safety requirements, including a complete reroofing project in 2016 costing $24,850, and earlier electrical upgrades such as dedicated laundry circuits in 2004 and various unit renovations in 2007. The property has maintained good compliance with housing inspections, with routine inspections recorded in 1999, 2005, and 2008 showing no significant ongoing concerns. While there have been some service-related incidents recorded through 311 calls, these typically pertained to exterior issues such as parking violations, tree damage, and street-related concerns rather than building-specific problems.

A 2016 sewage backup incident was promptly resolved. The building's recent maintenance record, particularly the completed seismic retrofit and electrical upgrades, suggests a focus on maintaining building safety and infrastructure. Historical renovation work in individual units (such as Unit 5's 2007 renovation) demonstrates ongoing improvements to resident living spaces, though some permits (like the 2007 electrical permit for Unit 5) appear to have been cancelled or not completed as originally planned.
