1925 Pierce St, San Francisco, CA 94115

The 12-unit residential building at 1925 Pierce Street in Lower Pacific Heights is a two-story, multi-family structure built in 1925 and currently owned by the Kathleen G Drescher 2015 Trust. The property has undergone significant recent improvements, including the completion of a trenchless sewer replacement in August 2023 and a comprehensive fire alarm system upgrade in 2022 to comply with California fire safety requirements, though this work did not fully comply with current building and NFPA standards. The building has a documented history of unit renovations, with several apartments receiving modern updates to kitchens and bathrooms between 2015 and 2021, including Units 1, 6, 8, 9, and 12, each featuring electrical and plumbing upgrades to meet current codes.

The building has faced several regulatory challenges over the years that have since been addressed. In 2022, there was a brief period of non-compliance regarding the boiler permit, which was resolved within two days of the notice. A routine 2017 inspection revealed multiple fire safety concerns, including the need for smoke detectors and maintenance of fire escape ladders, all of which were abated shortly thereafter.

The property experienced periodic heating system issues, including a documented "no heat" complaint in December 2009, though these appear to have been resolved. Recent infrastructure improvements suggest active management attention to building systems, while the documented history of unit renovations indicates ongoing investment in modernization. The building has maintained overall compliance with safety regulations since addressing the most recent violations, with no active complaints or violations on record as of now.
