557 Fillmore St, San Francisco, CA 94117

The three-story, six-unit multi-family residential building at 557 Fillmore Street in Hayes Valley, built in 1900, has undergone significant improvements and maintenance work over the past two decades, with particular attention to safety systems and structural integrity. Most recently, in 2021, the building received a comprehensive fire alarm system upgrade costing $19,500, and underwent substantial structural repairs valued at $196,000. Earlier major projects included window replacements in 2020 (estimated at $224,543), a building-wide reroofing in 2019, and multiple unit-specific renovations such as a bathroom remodel in Apartment #4 in 2019.

The building has also seen important infrastructure upgrades, including the installation of new central heating systems for all units, a complete electrical overhaul in 2007 that included new panels and extensive wiring, and the addition of multiple fireplaces. The property's maintenance history shows regular attention to building systems and compliance requirements, with no active violations since 2004 and the resolution of several routine safety inspections by Housing Inspection Services in previous years. While there were some complaints about unauthorized work and permit compliance issues in 2007 regarding roof removal and window replacement, these appear to have been resolved through subsequent permits and inspections.

The building's most recent fire safety incident was a CO detector malfunction with no injuries reported. Recent 311 calls from 2020-2022 primarily concern street cleaning and sidewalk maintenance issues that are not directly related to building conditions. The property has maintained a record of addressing repairs and improvements promptly, as evidenced by the completion statuses of most recent permits, though some older permits from 2008 regarding garage door work are listed as expired.
