1401 Waller St, San Francisco, CA 94117

The 6-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 1401 Waller Street in Haight Ashbury, managed by Waverly Management LLC, has undergone several significant safety improvements in recent years. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2017-2019, which included the installation of new shear walls and a steel moment frame to improve seismic stability, earning it a Certificate of Final Completion.

The property is currently upgrading its fire safety systems, with permits issued in late 2024 for installing a new fire alarm system and low-frequency sounders in sleeping areas to comply with current fire code requirements, though there was a safety-related complaint in June 2024 regarding a garage door security issue. The building has experienced some recurring exterior maintenance challenges, as evidenced by multiple reports of graffiti and garbage issues along the property perimeter, with several such incidents reported and resolved between late 2024 and early 2025.

Historical records show various maintenance activities, including reroofing work in 2002, a deck installation in 2003 (which initially prompted a housing complaint), and regular housing inspections. The building's fire incident history indicates mostly minor issues, including cooking-related incidents and false alarms, with no civilian injuries reported.
