49 Broderick St, San Francisco, CA 94117

49 Broderick Street is a 4-story, 15-unit multi-family residential building located in the Buena Vista Park neighborhood, constructed in 1907 and currently owned by 1007 Haight Street LLC. The building has undergone significant maintenance and improvement work over the past decade, including a comprehensive electrical service upgrade in May 2024 replacing the main electrical service with a 400-amp system and 15 residential meters, and a fire alarm system upgrade in December 2023 to meet current fire codes.

Recent major improvements include sewer replacement work in June 2023, a replacement domestic hot water system installation in August 2022, and multiple unit renovations focusing on kitchen and bathroom updates between 2015 and 2021. The building has faced recurring fire safety system issues, with violations noted in 2023-2024 related to alarm systems, sleeping area requirements, and sprinkler systems, though most of these have been marked as "Condition Corrected." Historical records show significant renovation work including foundation bolting (2016), reroofing (2009), and various unit-specific improvements totaling several hundred thousand dollars. The property has experienced some maintenance challenges, evidenced by multiple heating system complaints in 2015, common area issues, and a series of fire safety-related complaints across different years.

Notably, there was a cluster of building violations in 2001 related to various safety concerns including smoke enclosure doors, lead-based paint, egress obstruction, window repairs, and fire proofing, though these were all abated by 2007. Recent years have shown more consistent maintenance and upgrading of building systems, particularly with the electrical infrastructure and fire safety systems, though a current active complaint regarding common areas (filed July 2023) remains pending resolution. The property underwent one tenant buyout in December 2019, with a payout of $75,000 to one tenant.
