1375 Green St, San Francisco, CA 94109

The 12-unit apartment building at 1375 Green Street in Russian Hill, built in 1925 and currently owned by the Michael S Rossoff Revocable Living Trust, has undergone several significant safety and maintenance improvements over the past decade. The property completed mandatory seismic retrofitting of the garage level in 2018 as a Tier 4 soft-story building, demonstrating compliance with San Francisco's seismic safety requirements.

Recent fire safety upgrades include the addition of low frequency sounders to the fire alarm system in 2024 to meet current code requirements, following a pattern of fire safety compliance issues that have emerged periodically since 2017, including violations related to alarm systems and extinguishers. The building has received regular maintenance and upgrades, including a roof replacement in 2015, window replacement in 2023, and structural improvements such as dryrot repair and reinforcement work in 2014. A steam boiler installation was completed in 2020, replacing two older units.

Historical violations from 2002-2003 related to fire safety, lighting, and maintenance issues were promptly addressed and resolved. The property has experienced recurring fire safety inspections showing varying degrees of compliance, with the most recent fire safety issue (fire extinguisher-related) being resolved in April 2023. The building's location has been subject to periodic street cleaning calls and parking enforcement issues, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls regarding general cleaning and driveway blocking between 2023 and 2024, though these are typical of urban settings and not specific to the building's condition.
