1401 Grove St, San Francisco, CA 94117

The 12-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 1401 Grove Street in Park North, owned by Nelson/noyon Living Trust, was constructed in 1927. The property has undergone several significant improvements to address safety and building code compliance, most notably completing mandatory seismic upgrades as a Tier 3 Soft Story building in 2015 (with CFC issued) costing $80,000, which included the installation of anchor bolts and Ufer grounding systems.

The building's maintenance history shows attention to critical systems, including a complete steam boiler replacement in 2018 and previous routine safety inspections by Housing Inspection Services in 2009, 2015, and 2017. The building experienced a series of violations in 2002 that were all resolved by May of that year, covering various issues such as heating requirements, fire escape maintenance, security measures, and interior surface maintenance.

More recent concerns have been minimal, with the most recent issue being a fuel switch valve replacement for the steam boiler in 2018 that was resolved by August 2018. The property has documented two fire-related incidents - one gas leak and one smoke detector activation - neither resulting in civilian injuries. While there have been multiple 311 calls regarding garbage and debris outside the building between 2024 and 2025, these appear to be related to street cleaning rather than building-specific issues.
