1255 Page St, San Francisco, CA 94117

The 12-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 1255 Page Street in the Haight Ashbury neighborhood, built in 1961 and owned by the Margolin Family Bypass Trust, has experienced several maintenance and safety issues over the past decade. Most recently, in June 2023, the building filed for balcony repairs costing $60,000 to address decayed joists and deck surfaces across all six balconies, including installation of new gutters and guardrails. In early 2019, the property faced multiple violations requiring remediation, including mold issues, lead paint concerns, egress obstructions, and problems with fire safety systems, though these were all abated by May 13, 2019.

There were also repairs made in 2019 to address dry rot in balcony fascia boards and various general maintenance issues. The building's history includes recurring moisture-related problems, with complaints about windows leaking, mold, and mildew documented in 2010-2019. Safety systems have also required attention, with building violations citing the need to maintain emergency lighting, repair garbage chute doors, and submit smoke/carbon monoxide compliance documentation.

Recent complaints in 2019 noted disturbances from a buzzing machine in the building. Infrastructure maintenance records show the building has undergone reroofing work in 2002 and emergency lighting installation in 2005. While there have been two fire-related complaints on record (2013 and 2017) regarding blocked exits and fire extinguishers, both were determined to have no merit, and there has been only one detector activation incident with no associated fire or injuries. The property has also experienced various street-level maintenance issues as evidenced by multiple 311 calls between 2021-2024, primarily related to sidewalk cleaning needs and sewer issues.
