2280 Pacific Ave, San Francisco, CA 94115
The 24-unit, 6-story apartment building at 2280 Pacific Avenue in Pacific Heights, constructed in 1928, has undergone numerous renovations and faced several significant safety and maintenance issues over recent years. Most notably, there are ongoing concerns regarding the building's fire safety systems, with the most recent fire alarm system upgrade permit issued in December 2024 for $76,800 to comply with SFFC requirements. The building has experienced multiple violations related to its sprinkler/standpipe systems in late 2024, along with a sleeping area requirements violation from December 2023 that remains open.
Between 2022-2024, the building has undergone substantial unit improvements, including complete kitchen and bathroom remodels in units 602 and 302 (2022), various kitchen remodels in units 504, 604, and 202 (2021), and significant plumbing updates throughout multiple units. The property has a history of maintenance challenges, particularly in 2018 when multiple complaints were filed regarding a ceiling collapse, gas leaks, and concerns about lead paint. While these issues appear to have been addressed, with units receiving new water lines, plumbing fixtures, and electrical upgrades, there have been persistent concerns about the building's systems.
A pattern of fire alarm system malfunctions and other related incidents has been documented, though none resulted in civilian injuries. The building's maintenance record shows regular updates to essential systems, including boiler replacements in 2013 and 2014, though some violations and complaints suggest recurring maintenance challenges. Recent fire safety violations in late 2024 and an open sleeping area requirements violation from December 2023 indicate ongoing compliance issues with safety regulations.
