1515 Greenwich St, San Francisco, CA 94123

1515 Greenwich Street is a three-story, 35-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1906, located in San Francisco's Cow Hollow neighborhood. The property has undergone significant improvements over the years, with major renovations including unit remodels (Unit 5 in 2015, Unit 30 in 2011), comprehensive electrical rewiring projects in multiple units during 2008-2009, and the installation of a new boiler system in 2021. Safety upgrades were implemented including a new fire sprinkler system for the garage area in 2008, and a building-wide fire alarm system installation in 2008-2009 encompassing smoke detectors, horns, and pull stations.

The building has experienced recurring fire alarm system issues, with verified violations related to sleeping area requirements in late 2023. There was a significant compliance issue in 2014 regarding the mandatory Soft Story Retrofit Program, though this was later abated in 2015. Recent maintenance concerns have included a deteriorating roof tarp noted in 2019, and several 311 calls in 2024 regarding sidewalk cleaning needs and parking violations, though these are not unusual for urban locations.

The building's heating system has a documented history of concerns from 1995-1997, but more recent permits indicate proper maintenance of systems. Recent permits from 2024 showed work related to verifying sound levels in sleeping areas, though this permits cost was nominal at $1.00. The property has experienced multiple false alarm or unintentional alarm system activations, though no civilian injuries have been reported from these or any other incidents.
