101 Broderick St, San Francisco, CA 94117

101 Broderick Street is a 4-story, 28-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1890 in San Francisco's Haight-Ashbury neighborhood. The property, currently owned by 101 Broderick LLC, has undergone extensive recent renovations, including a comprehensive kitchen and bathroom upgrade in Unit 306 completed in August 2023, and a significant fire alarm system replacement project in May 2023 that included the installation of heat detectors in unsprinklered areas and low-frequency horns in sleeping areas.

The building has demonstrated consistent maintenance and improvement efforts, with most units receiving kitchen and bathroom upgrades over recent years, including Units 103, 406, 205, 301, 402, 203, and 302 between 2016 and 2023. Of particular note, the building completed a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2017, installing steel moment frames and plywood shear walls to enhance seismic safety, achieving compliance with San Francisco's requirements. Recent fire safety concerns have been addressed, though there remain some open violations, including a sleeping area requirement violation issued in November 2023.

The building has experienced periodic elevator outages (notably in 2012) and some past issues with heating and moisture control, as evidenced by multiple complaints from 2002-2003 regarding mold, water leaks, and heating problems. However, these historical issues appear to have been resolved, and the property has maintained an active program of unit improvements and safety upgrades, including the recent installation of heat detectors and fire alarm system improvements throughout the building. The property's maintenance record shows regular attention to building systems, with particular focus on fire safety improvements, unit modernization, and compliance with current building codes.
