1630 Filbert St, San Francisco, CA 94123

The six-unit multi-family residential building at 1630 Filbert Street in Cow Hollow, owned by the Helen L Lowe Revocable Trust, has undergone several significant improvements since its construction in 1950. Most notably, in early 2021, the building received a comprehensive fire safety upgrade with the installation of a new fire alarm system, including sprinkler monitoring, low-frequency sounders in all units, and horn-strobe sounders in common areas, with the work being completed at a cost of $32,314. The building completed its soft-story seismic retrofit in 2018 (Tier 4), demonstrating compliance with San Francisco's earthquake safety requirements.

In 2019, two units (1 and 5) underwent substantial renovations including kitchen and bathroom remodels, addition of washer/dryer facilities, with work values totaling $93,000, and this was supported by both plumbing and electrical permits. The property has maintained active compliance with safety regulations, though there was one building complaint in 2012 regarding unauthorized construction work that was resolved within two months. Historical violations from 2002, primarily related to fire safety and security, were all abated by May 2002.

The building has undergone various infrastructure improvements, including electrical modifications, plumbing upgrades, and multiple street space permits over the years. Recent records from 2021-2024 show several parking-related complaints, primarily for blocked driveways, which have all been addressed through citations, though these are external to the building's operations. A recent permit from September 2024 indicates street space usage, though the specific nature of this permit is not detailed in the records.
