2290 Francisco St, San Francisco, CA 94123

The 18-unit multi-family residential building at 2290 Francisco Street in the Marina neighborhood is a three-story apartment complex built in 1927, currently owned by Blaine 1977 Revoc Tr. The property has undergone significant improvements and maintenance work over the past several years, including completed soft-story seismic retrofitting in 2018 (at a cost of $75,000), comprehensive fire alarm system upgrades in 2022, and various unit renovations. Recent notable improvements include a 2022 remodel of Unit #302 involving bathroom and kitchen upgrades ($30,000), and the installation of new laundry facilities in 2018 with associated electrical and plumbing work ($45,000).

The building has maintained reasonable safety standards, with multiple fire code violations and fire complaints from 2014-2023 being promptly corrected, including recent issues with fire extinguishers and alarm systems in early 2023. Historical records show the building experienced several heating system-related complaints in the early 2000s, with tenants reporting inadequate heat and radiator issues, though these appear to have been addressed by December 2006. More recent maintenance history shows consistent investment in property improvements, including multiple unit renovations, boiler replacements, and electrical system upgrades.

The building was documented as having completed its mandatory soft-story retrofit requirements (Tier 4) and received a Certificate of Final Completion (CFC). Recent 311 calls from 2024 primarily relate to external issues such as garbage/debris and sidewalk conditions, which fall outside the property management's direct control. While the building has experienced multiple false fire alarms and system malfunctions over the years, these incidents have not resulted in any civilian injuries, suggesting proper emergency response procedures are in place.
