2250-2254 Pine St, San Francisco, CA 94115

The three-story multi-family residential building at 2250-2254 Pine Street in Lower Pacific Heights, constructed in 1913, is owned by the Shirley A Byles Living Trust and contains 6 units. The property has undergone several significant improvements to enhance safety and compliance, most notably completing a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2017 costing $70,000 (with a Tier 3 classification) to meet seismic safety requirements.

Recent maintenance includes electrical upgrades with the installation of 5 new 40-amp subpanels in November 2024, and plumbing work in 2018 involving water heater and wall heater replacements, as well as a house trap replacement. The building has experienced some maintenance and safety issues over its history, including a significant incident in December 2021 when decorative plaster trim above the top floor window dislodged and fell onto the sidewalk, though this was abated by March 2022.

A comprehensive inspection in 2004 revealed multiple safety concerns, including issues with fire safety equipment, egress obstruction, and security features, though these were all resolved by September 2004. The property has recently generated several 311 calls regarding sidewalk cleanliness and parking violations, particularly in 2024, though these primarily relate to street-level issues rather than building conditions. The building has maintained its habitability since its last significant inspection in 2004, with no active violations or unresolved complaints on record as of October 2023.
