2245 Beach St, San Francisco, CA 94123

The 3-story, 6-unit multi-family residential building at 2245 Beach Street in the Marina district, owned by George & Janice Guglielmo R, has undergone several significant improvements and faced various maintenance challenges since its construction in 1928. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2017 (as a Tier 4 building), enhancing its structural safety and receiving a Certificate of Final Completion. Recent improvements include a 2022 balcony upgrade ($20,000) with new code-compliant railings and Ipe decking, reroofing work ($3,000), and the resolution of a 2021 water damage issue that resulted in multiple building violations for Unit #2 involving mold, buckled flooring, and damaged walls, which were all abated by March 2022.

The property has a history of unit-specific renovations, including comprehensive updates to several apartments over the years. Unit #2 received significant improvements in 2012 with a full kitchen remodel, laundry plumbing installation, and electrical upgrades. Unit #6 underwent bathroom renovations in 2014, while similar updates were performed in Unit #5 in 2013.

The building has also seen necessary infrastructure upgrades, such as electrical panel improvements and the installation of a car charger in 2016, and the replacement of balcony railings and waterproofing work in 2022. A notable 2018 complaint regarding unpermitted asbestos removal work in the garage area was filed but subsequently closed. More recent concerns have primarily involved parking enforcement issues in the vicinity, with multiple complaints about driveway blocking between 2022 and 2024, and a sewage backup incident in late 2023 that was promptly addressed.
