1574-1576 Golden Gate Ave, San Francisco, CA 94115

The 4-unit apartment building at 1574-1576 Golden Gate Avenue, owned by the Eric S Schmitt Revocable Trust, has undergone several significant improvements since its construction in 1900, with the most recent major renovation occurring in 2019 when unit #2 was remodeled at a cost of $40,000 to update its bathroom and kitchen fixtures. This renovation included the installation of a new flue for wall heater and electrical upgrades, all of which were successfully completed.

Prior to this, the building received substantial maintenance, including a roof replacement in 2010 ($15,000), a stair safety improvement in 2015 which addressed climbing hazards and improved rail support, and a comprehensive modernization of unit #2 in 2017 that involved bathroom and kitchen upgrades with new fixtures and high-efficiency lighting. The building has a history of addressing safety and maintenance issues, as evidenced by multiple routine safety inspections by Housing Inspection Services between 2000 and 2018.

While there were several building violations noted in 2007 related to various safety and maintenance issues such as water heaters, plumbing permits, and fire escape maintenance, these were all resolved by 2010. The property has experienced some recent external issues typical for the area, including reports of encampments, graffiti, and parking complaints, with the most recent incidents occurring in late 2023. However, these exterior issues are generally considered separate from the building's internal maintenance and safety record, which shows consistent attention to upkeep and modernization over the years.
