2240 Pacific Ave, San Francisco, CA 94115

The 12-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 2240 Pacific Avenue in Pacific Heights, owned by Mario & Kathleen Delucchi LP, has undergone significant infrastructure improvements and maintenance since its construction in 1949. Most recently, in 2023, the building received a new roof costing $63,500 and underwent sewer trap replacement. Other notable recent improvements include a complete window replacement project in 2022 ($245,000), and a fire alarm system upgrade in 2021 to meet current safety codes.

The building has successfully completed its mandatory soft-story seismic retrofit, and has addressed various maintenance issues over the years including plumbing work such as a new steam boiler installation in 2019 and backflow device replacement in 2012. While the building has generally maintained good compliance with safety standards, there have been some concerning incidents. In 2022, there was a significant complaint regarding improper window work that allegedly compromised emergency egress.

More recently, in 2024, a fire alarm violation was issued, though this appears to have been promptly addressed. The building has experienced recurring fire alarm system malfunctions, with several documented incidents between 2018 and 2024, though none resulted in injuries or actual fires. Historical complaints from the late 1990s indicated periodic heating system issues, though these appear to have been resolved. The property has maintained active compliance with its soft-story retrofit requirements, and recently (September 2024) responded to multiple parking enforcement issues and sidewalk maintenance matters, which are common in urban settings.
