1190 Haight St, San Francisco, CA 94117

The three-story, 18-unit apartment building at 1190 Haight Street, constructed in 1900 and currently owned by Mark Warren Danekas, has undergone several significant infrastructure improvements and faced multiple compliance issues over the years. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2019 at a cost of $140,000, demonstrating compliance with seismic safety requirements.

Recent building maintenance work includes a 2016 reroofing project costing $46,000, foundation upgrades in 2012, and comprehensive plumbing improvements including sewer lateral replacements in 2015. The property has experienced recurring fire safety compliance issues, with the most recent violations concerning sleeping area requirements and alarm systems in 2023-2024, though previous violations from 2006, 2014, and 2018 were corrected. Historical records indicate multiple unit improvements and renovations, including a 2015 kitchen remodel in Unit 102, though past complaints from 2006-2007 documented unauthorized unit modifications and potential lead/asbestos concerns that required resolution.

The building has faced various maintenance challenges, including water intrusion and mold issues reported in 2016, splintering hardwood flooring in 2019, and several interior surface violations, though most historical violations were abated by 2022. Current active compliance requirements include submitting smoke/carbon monoxide and section 604 compliance affidavits as of February 2024, while recent 311 calls from late 2024 primarily relate to street-level maintenance issues such as graffiti and garbage collection. The building's fire safety systems have undergone regular inspections and corrections, though an open violation regarding sleeping area requirements remains as of January 2024.
