2390 Chestnut St, San Francisco, CA 94123

Located in San Francisco's Marina neighborhood, this 27-unit multi-family residential building at 2390 Chestnut Street (built in 1927) has undergone significant renovations and faced several challenges over the past decade. Most notably, a fire incident occurred in August 2020 involving units 303 and 304, resulting in damage that required repairs, though issues with unpermitted work remained.

The building has seen substantial improvements, including a comprehensive fire alarm system upgrade in 2023 costing $59,640 to comply with current safety codes, and multiple unit renovations between 2020-2022 involving kitchen relocations, bathroom updates (including shower installations), and electrical improvements across various units (102, 106, 201, 202, 207, 209, 302, 305, 309), with associated permits showing proper planning and execution of these improvements. The property has a history of addressing maintenance and safety issues, including a backflow device replacement in 2022 and various fire alarm system corrections from 2013 to 2023.

Building violations from 2014-2020 showed concerns about water damage, mold, damaged ceilings, and lead paint risks, though records indicate these were eventually abated. The building's soft-story retrofit work was completed and certified, and there is ongoing consideration for adding ADUs to the property, with multiple planning applications proposing the conversion of garage and storage spaces into additional units. Recent records (2023-2024) primarily show routine issues such as garbage management, parking enforcement, and sidewalk cleaning, with no major building-specific complaints or violations recorded in the past year.
