2300 Pacific Ave, San Francisco, CA 94115

The 60-unit, 5-story apartment building at 2300 Pacific Avenue in Pacific Heights, owned by Bgs Company, has undergone several significant maintenance and upgrade projects since its construction in 1971. Most notably, in early 2024, the building initiated a fire alarm system upgrade to modern devices, including LF horns in units and a wireless monitoring communicator, addressing current fire marshal requirements. Recent years have seen multiple fire safety-related violations, including a 2023 sleeping area requirement violation and 2023 alarm system maintenance violation, though the latter was abated.

The building has experienced recurring issues with its fire alarm system, documented violations from 2007 to 2023, and several false alarm incidents. The property has maintained an active renovation schedule, completing water damage repairs in 2021 (Units 105/205/305), wood shake siding repairs in 2018, and a complete reroofing in 2016 at a cost of $20,000. Individual unit remodels have been performed in apartments 206 (2015), 307 (2014), and 308 (2013), including kitchen and bathroom upgrades.

Historical records show a pattern of fire egress obstruction issues in 2002 that were resolved, and concerns about construction notification to tenants in 2013. The building's maintenance history shows regular attention to essential systems, though recent fire safety violations suggest ongoing compliance challenges in this area. Several 311 calls in 2024 have addressed various building-related issues, including property damage reports and parking violations, while recent graffiti incidents on the mailbox were reported to the USPS in late 2024.
