2425-2429 Post St, San Francisco, CA 94115

The three-unit multi-family residential building at 2425-2429 Post Street in Lower Pacific Heights, owned by 23rd Austin Post LLC, has undergone several significant maintenance and repair projects since its construction in 1895. Most recently, in September 2024, permits were issued for substantial basement upgrades including foundation work, structural support repairs, and improvements to the rear exterior stairs at an estimated cost of $150,000. The building has experienced recurring issues with moisture and ventilation, most notably documented in complaints from 2019 and 2008 regarding mold problems and heating system failures.

A major plumbing upgrade was completed in 2020 involving the installation of a trench drain and garage improvements. Multiple water damage incidents have been addressed, including waterproofing and dry rot repairs at the rear of the building in 2022, though historical records show these issues have persisted, as evidenced by similar repairs being needed in 2005. The property has faced several health and safety compliance challenges, as documented in a routine inspection in 2001 that resulted in multiple violations including the need for handrails, security improvements, and sanitation issues, though these were all abated by October 2003.

The building has experienced various system malfunctions as recorded in fire department responses, primarily consisting of false alarms and smoke detector activations, with no civilian injuries reported in any incidents. Recent environmental concerns have been noted through 311 calls, particularly regarding waste management and vehicle parking violations, though these are typical urban issues not specific to the building's condition or management. The building's maintenance history shows ongoing attention to structural and safety improvements, with several major systems being updated or replaced over the years, including roofing, plumbing, and various structural components.
