1510-1512 Pacific Ave, San Francisco, CA 94109

The two-unit residential building at 1510-1512 Pacific Avenue in Nob Hill, constructed in 1922, has undergone significant improvements and faced several challenges over the past decade. Most notably, in 2015-2016, the property underwent substantial renovation work valued at approximately $350,000, including a complete reconfiguration of living spaces, installation of a new roof deck, comprehensive rewiring with 200-amp service upgrade, window replacements, and HVAC system upgrades with new furnaces and forced air units. In late 2013, the building experienced serious safety concerns when multiple violations were filed regarding unsafe stairs, inadequate egress, damaged exit doors, and security gate issues, though these violations were all abated by January 2014.

More recently, there have been some maintenance and infrastructure issues noted, including a lifted sidewalk with damaged utility vault cover reported in May 2024. The building's recent history shows attention to modernization and compliance with safety standards, though there have been ongoing maintenance challenges typical of older buildings. There have been three documented fire alarm incidents, all related to system malfunctions rather than actual fires.

Multiple 311 calls in 2024 primarily relate to exterior maintenance issues such as debris, cleaning needs, and parking matters. The property has also seen recent attention to its exterior appearance, with window replacements and rooftop improvements. While the building has a history of violation corrections and safety upgrades, the ongoing nature of some exterior maintenance issues suggests continued attention to building upkeep is required.
