451-455 Spruce St, San Francisco, CA 94118

The three-unit multi-family residential building at 451-455 Spruce Street, located in Presidio Heights, is a three-story flats and duplex structure built in 1900, currently owned by Paul T. and Rosemary Garvey.

The property has undergone several significant maintenance and safety upgrades over the years, including the replacement of back stair landings in 1997, conversion of electrical service conduit to underground with PG&E in 2002, and various street space modifications in 2016. In 2000, the building experienced multiple safety violations that were subsequently addressed and abated, including issues with handrails, egress obstructions, exterior door self-closing devices, and fire extinguisher requirements. The building has had several inspection-related complaints, including multiple reports of alleged illegal units between 1999-2001, all of which were marked as not active.

More recent issues have been primarily related to external conditions, with multiple 311 calls in 2023-2024 regarding garbage and debris, hazardous materials, and pest infestations. The most recent external maintenance concerns were documented in September 2024, including issues with garbage management and rodent/insect infestation, though these cases were resolved by responding agencies. The property's historical records show consistent attention to addressing safety concerns and maintaining compliance with building codes, with no active violations or complaints on record as of the latest data.
