1801 Turk St, San Francisco, CA 94115

The 1801 Turk Street property is a 21-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1925, currently owned by 1801 Turk Apartments LLC. The building has undergone several significant improvements in recent years, including a complete kitchen remodel in Unit #14 in 2022 ($18,000), electrical upgrades, and a comprehensive fire alarm system upgrade in 2021 ($20,000) to comply with SF fire code requirements. The property has a documented history of fire safety concerns, with multiple violations and complaints between 2017 and 2023 regarding alarm systems, emergency lighting, and sleeping area requirements, most recently in December 2023.

There is an active complaint filed in 2020 regarding the building's soft-story status, suggesting potential structural concerns. The building has seen various infrastructure improvements, including solar panel installations (2010-2013), a kitchen remodel and plumbing work in 2022, and seismic stiffening work in the garage area completed in 2011 ($57,000). A complaint regarding unauthorized construction work was filed in November 2022, which was subsequently investigated.

Between 2023 and 2024, there have been several 311 calls regarding building surroundings, including issues with garbage debris and sidewalk access, though these appear to be external to the building itself. The property has a history of routine safety inspections, with violations typically being addressed promptly, though the recent sleeping area violations remain open. A tenant buyout occurred in 2017 for $10,000.
