Augrented Insights Report

The 21-unit apartment building at 399 Steiner Street, owned by Spca2 LLC, was constructed in 1912 and is a three-story multi-family residential structure located in Hayes Valley. The building has undergone significant renovations and improvements over the past several years, with substantial work completed between 2015-2019, including electrical upgrades to replace old wiring, comprehensive plumbing improvements including shower pan installations and repiping of multiple units, and interior renovations in units 2 and 4 involving kitchen and bathroom remodeling.

The property is now in Tier 2 of San Francisco's Soft Story Program, with work completed and Certificate of Final Completion issued. Recent issues have emerged regarding building safety systems, with active violations as of 2023/2024 including problems with the boiler permit, fire escape maintenance, fire extinguisher servicing, and multiple alarm system issues.

The building has experienced recurring fire safety concerns, as evidenced by multiple fire violations, complaints, and alarm system activations between 2009-2024. There was also a security concern in 2020 regarding a malfunctioning front gate lock that allegedly resulted in thefts. Historical records show regular maintenance and improvement work, including the legalization of a 21st dwelling unit at the ground floor in 2016, though some recent violations related to fire safety systems and equipment permits remain open or recently addressed, including a boiler permit issue from December 2023 that was abated by January 2024.
