1762 Pine St, San Francisco, CA 94109

The two-story multi-family residential building at 1762 Pine Street in Lower Pacific Heights, owned by Wai-sai Chang Fmly Lp, contains 8 units and was constructed in 1961. The property has undergone several significant safety improvements in recent years, most notably a complete fire alarm system installation in 2021 (costing $27,552) and a mandatory soft-story retrofit completed in 2017 (costing $213,400), demonstrating compliance with current seismic safety standards.

The building's maintenance history shows attention to basic infrastructure, including reroofing projects in 1993 and 2006, window replacements in 1999, and interior repairs to address water damage in 2006. The property had a series of fire safety violations in 2004, which were all resolved within two months and included issues with fire proofing and gas meter safety requirements.

Earlier complaints from 1996-1998 involved various maintenance concerns, such as a fire door malfunction, lighting issues in common areas, and worn carpeting. More recent observations from 2023-2024 have primarily pertained to external maintenance matters, including reports of abandoned furniture (July to October 2024) and a current open sidewalk defect issue reported in March 2024. The building experienced two false fire-related incidents with no civilian injuries recorded, and while recent 311 calls indicate ongoing external maintenance challenges, these do not significantly impact resident safety or building integrity.
