2581-2583 Post St, San Francisco, CA 94115

The 4-unit, 2-story apartment building at 2581-2583 Post Street, constructed in 1900, has undergone significant infrastructure upgrades in recent years under the ownership of 2581 Post LLC. The building has seen substantial improvements to its fire safety systems, including the installation of a comprehensive fire sprinkler system throughout the first floor in 2020 (cost: $25,100) followed by a sprinkler monitoring system installation in 2021. Mandatory seismic retrofitting was completed in 2019 as part of the San Francisco soft-story program, and the building has received various unit upgrades including the legalization of additional units and infrastructure improvements.

Recent plumbing and electrical work in 2021-2022 suggests ongoing modernization efforts, including the addition of units 5 and 6 with new HVAC systems and comprehensive electrical installations. The property has experienced some construction-related concerns, including a complaint in 2021 regarding work affecting a neighboring property and a noise complaint in 2016 about construction hours. Historical issues from 2004 included multiple violations related to building maintenance and sanitation, though these were subsequently abated. Recent inspections and permits indicate active maintenance and upgrading of building systems, with the most recent permits focusing on plumbing and infrastructure improvements.

The building's recent history shows attention to safety and habitability standards, with fire safety and seismic improvements completed. Recent 311 calls in 2023-2024 indicate ongoing street-related maintenance issues outside the building, including sidewalk defects and tree root concerns. Fire-related incidents have been minimal and primarily related to system testing rather than actual emergencies. The January 2004 complaints documented various maintenance issues, including electrical problems and water damage, but these were resolved by September 2004.
