Augrented Insights Report

2398 Pacific Avenue is a 5-story, 40-unit multi-family residential building located in Pacific Heights, constructed in 1927 and currently owned by 2398 Pacific Ave LLC. The building has undergone several significant improvements and faced various maintenance challenges over recent years.

Most notably, in December 2024, a fire alarm system upgrade was issued to comply with SFFC requirements, and there is currently an open violation from November 2023 regarding sleeping area requirements. The building has a history of both routine maintenance and emergency response, with multiple fire system-related violations and repairs between 2006 and 2024, including issues with alarms, sprinklers, and fire escape ladders. Recent improvements include the installation of a solar power system in 2017, replacement of street-facing windows with double-hung wood windows, and various unit renovations including kitchen updates and roof replacement projects.

The property has had some concerning maintenance issues, particularly in 2015 when there were complaints about peeling paint (reported as a potential hazard considering young children in the unit) and a bathroom ceiling collapse. Other building systems have seen regular updates, such as backflow prevention device replacements in 2022, steam boiler replacement in 2013, and multiple roof replacements, indicating ongoing maintenance efforts. The building's history shows attention to both routine maintenance and addressing violations, though the presence of multiple fire system-related issues and the recent sleeping area violation suggest areas requiring continued oversight.
