2030 Fell St, San Francisco, CA 94117

This multi-family residential building at 2030 Fell Street in Park North, built in 1925, contains 15 units across three stories and is currently managed by 2030 Fell Street LLC. The property has undergone significant ongoing maintenance and improvements over the past decade, with the most recent permits issued in October 2024 for substantial renovations in Unit #2, including wall relocations and bathroom/kitchen upgrades totaling over $84,000. The building has completed various facade repairs, including siding replacement on the east wall sections in 2023, and prior improvements to units 6, 10, and 8 involving electrical upgrades, kitchen and bathroom renovations, and siding repairs.

A new fire alarm system was installed in 2021, and the property achieved Tier 2 Soft Story compliance with work completed and a Certificate of Final Completion issued. The building has faced some tenant-related issues in recent years, most notably a rodent infestation complaint in January 2023, though this case was closed in May 2023. Historical records show periodic maintenance challenges, including past plumbing issues and problems with building systems, but these have generally been addressed through subsequent repairs and improvements.

The property has maintained compliance with housing codes, though there were violations noted in 2017 regarding fire safety features (which were resolved), and a brief period of non-compliance with the Soft Story Retrofit Program requirements in 2014, which was also addressed. Building management has responded to maintenance needs as evidenced by the numerous permits for repair work, though there have been occasional tenant complaints about construction disruptions. Recent maintenance activity demonstrates ongoing investment in building upkeep, with approximately $150,000 in permitted improvements just in 2024.
