2125 Hayes St, San Francisco, CA 94117

The 6-unit, 3-story apartment building at 2125 Hayes St in Park North, owned by Deborah E Gin Revocable Living Trust, has undergone significant renovations and safety improvements since its construction in 1925. Most recently, in late 2023, units 4 and 5 received substantial upgrades to kitchens and bathrooms, including new counters, cabinets, electrical work, and lighting, with associated permits showing proper compliance following an initial complaint about unpermitted work.

The building has maintained an active commitment to safety improvements, completing a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2015 and upgrading the fire alarm system in 2020-2021 to meet current safety standards, including the installation of AES radio monitoring, low-frequency sounders, and new safety equipment throughout the building. Previous maintenance has included garage ceiling repairs in 2009 and various infrastructure updates, such as electrical system rewiring and earthquake safety improvements. The property's maintenance history shows prompt attention to safety concerns, including the resolution of multiple fire safety violations in 2003 regarding fire escape ladders, smoke detectors, and fire extinguishers, all of which were abated within one month.

Historical permits indicate regular upkeep, including reroofing in 1995 and rear stair repairs in 1997. The building's compliance with major safety requirements, including its designation as a Tier 3 soft-story building with completed work and Certificate of Final Completion issued, suggests a focused approach to maintaining structural integrity and resident safety. While there have been routine safety inspections and occasional repairs needed, the property has generally responded appropriately to maintenance needs and regulatory requirements over the years.
