2665 Chestnut St, San Francisco, CA 94123

The 12-unit, three-story apartment building at 2665 Chestnut Street in Cow Hollow, owned by Raymond G Goodwin & Kathy B, has undergone several significant upgrades and maintenance work since its 1927 construction. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2016 at a cost of $59,000, achieving Tier 3 compliance. Recent major infrastructure improvements include the installation of a new domestic hot water boiler system serving all 12 units in March 2023, following the cancellation of an earlier installation attempt, and a 400-amp electrical service upgrade with 13 meter sockets completed in 2013.

The building has a history of fire alarm system activations, with five documented incidents since 2017, though none resulted in fires or injuries. Regular routine safety inspections have been conducted, with notable issues including potential concerns about fire escape security in 2006 and various maintenance matters addressed over the years. The property has experienced recurring plumbing and maintenance issues, particularly in the late 1990s and early 2000s, including toilet stoppages, leaks, and cold air infiltration problems.

More recent building maintenance work has included repairs to dry rot damage in exterior stairs in 2016. The building's systems appear to be well-maintained and regularly updated, though there have been some concerns about garbage and debris management in the surrounding area, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls in recent months. While there have been several fire alarm activations recorded in the building's history, most were due to system malfunctions or unintentional causes, with only one documented cooking-related incident. The property has passed routine safety inspections, and all known maintenance issues have been addressed through appropriate permits and work.
