Augrented Insights Report

609 Ashbury Street is a three-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1900, containing 14 units and currently owned by 1501-1509 Haight I3 Lp. The building has undergone significant renovations and improvements in recent years, with particular attention to safety and accessibility compliance. Most notably, in 2023, the building completed the installation of low-frequency sounders in sleeping areas to meet fire safety requirements, and associated fire alarm upgrades were implemented.

The property has also seen substantial unit improvements, including recent renovations to Units 7 and 9 (2022-2023) involving bathroom and kitchen upgrades, along with electrical and plumbing work. The building's maintenance record shows attention to structural integrity, with dry rot repairs completed in 2022, and ongoing compliance with the Mandatory Soft Story Retrofit Program has been achieved. Recent building inspections and permits indicate active management of building systems and resident safety requirements, including painting work completed in late 2024 and various unit upgrades. Historical violations from 2003 related to fire escape, ceiling repairs, and storage issues were resolved in 2004.

More recent complaints regarding work beyond permit scope were filed and resolved in 2023, though some compliance issues were noted in 2024 regarding fire extinguisher maintenance and gas shutoff requirements. The property has experienced occasional water-related issues, including past complaints about leaks (2015-2021) and documented fire alarm system malfunctions. Recent 311 calls (January 2025) indicate some ongoing concerns with garbage management, though these are external to the building itself. The building's commercial space has been officially recognized as a "Legacy Business" for Club Deluxe, and various planning records show attention to zoning and business operation requirements, including ADA compliance considerations.
