2095 California St, San Francisco, CA 94109

The 47-unit, four-story apartment building at 2095 California Street in Lower Pacific Heights, constructed in 1975, is currently managed by Gaehwiler 2000 Tr and has undergone several significant safety upgrades in recent years. The building has completed multiple fire alarm system upgrades, with the most recent installation in September 2022 and February 2023 meeting current code requirements, including new detectors, pull stations, and low-frequency sounders.

The property has a history of addressing essential maintenance and improvements, including a 2011 roofing project, window replacements, and the installation of a substantial 18kW solar system with 78 modules. Notably, the building was involved in the mandatory Soft Story Retrofit Program, receiving violations in 2014 for failure to submit required documentation, though these violations were eventually abated. More recent issues include ventilation complaints in 2016 and 2024, a 2011 incident of mold/mildew from flooding, and multiple sidewalk-related concerns due to tree root damage, with ongoing reports in 2023-2024.

The building has experienced several fire safety inspections since 2010, with issues regarding extinguishers, exits, and sprinkler systems being identified and corrected. Recent 311 calls from 2023-2024 have mainly related to street-side concerns such as hazardous materials, graffiti, and tree root-related sidewalk damage, though these issues are external to the building itself. The property appears to be actively maintained, with most violations and complaints being addressed and resolved in a timely manner, though some historical violations from 2000 and 2014 indicate past compliance challenges that have since been corrected.
