2515 Octavia St, San Francisco, CA 94123

The 5-unit multi-family residential building at 2515 Octavia St in Pacific Heights, owned by Spector-angel Trust, was constructed in 1910 and has undergone several significant improvements over its lifetime. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2017 at a cost of $49,000, achieving Tier 3 compliance. The property has a history of addressing fire safety issues, with a Major Violations case in 2001 leading to multiple fire safety improvements being completed by January 2002, including the installation of smoke detectors, fire extinguisher recharging, and resolution of combustible storage concerns.

Earlier maintenance records from the 1980s show structural repairs to the garage joists and rear stairs in 1986, though a 1984 fire sprinkler modification permit was marked as expired. More recent concerns have been documented, including a 2018 report of mold in a bathroom, which was quickly addressed within a week. The building has undergone several routine inspections by Housing Inspection Services over the years, with the most recent in 2016, showing regular oversight of property conditions.

The property has experienced recurring issues with vehicles blocking driveways, with at least six documented incidents between 2022 and 2024, resulting in multiple citations issued to offenders. While these parking issues don't directly impact building habitability, they are an ongoing concern for residents. An earlier complaint from 2001 documented plumbing and maintenance issues, including bathroom leaks and rusting pipes, which have not been specifically mentioned in more recent records.
