2262-2266 Filbert St, San Francisco, CA 94123

The three-unit, three-story multi-family residential building at 2262-2266 Filbert Street in Cow Hollow, owned by Lester Chew Revocable Trust, has undergone several significant structural improvements and faced recent incidents impacting its safety systems. Most notably, in September 2023, the building began substantial seismic strengthening work costing $120,000, including foundation replacement and new shear walls, though this work was temporarily interrupted by an October 2023 incident involving a vehicle colliding with the first-floor façade, damaging framing, stucco, and gas meters, necessitating a gas shutoff to the entire building.

This incident resulted in building violations that were subsequently abated by October 19, 2023. The property has a history of maintenance and improvements, including a completed window replacement project in 2022 involving 13 street-facing windows with energy-efficient wood-aluminum units. Earlier records show roofing work from 1999 and various routine inspections, including a 2002 violation for miscellaneous issues that appeared to be promptly resolved.

More recently, in 2024, there have been several 311 calls related to street and sidewalk conditions, including construction debris, cleaning needs, and parked vehicles, though most of these issues were quickly addressed. The building's systems experienced two gas-related incidents in the past, though no civilian injuries were reported in either case. The property has undergone regular maintenance and improvements consistent with maintaining a three-unit residential building in an urban environment, though recent events have highlighted the importance of ongoing safety system management and response to external impacts.
