152-154 Carl St, San Francisco, CA 94117

The 4-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 152-154 Carl Street was constructed in 1900 and is currently owned by Bruce Geoffrey Cohen Revoc. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the years, most notably a completed soft-story upgrade in 2017 costing $120,000, which brought the building into compliance with seismic safety requirements. Other major improvements include a sewer line replacement in 2016 and a kitchen and bathroom remodel in 2000.

The building has experienced some maintenance issues and safety concerns, particularly in the early 2000s when multiple violations were recorded in 2002 related to interior surfaces, windows, security doors, and mold/mildew problems, most of which were abated by September 2001. In recent years, there was one significant complaint about lack of heat in 2019 and another regarding paint disturbance in 2012, though both issues were resolved. The building's recent history shows ongoing maintenance attention, including multiple street space permits in 2019, and there have been three documented instances of malfunctioning smoke detectors and one carbon monoxide detector activation with no actual CO recorded.

The most recent activity at the property includes several 311 calls between 2023-2025 mainly regarding street-related issues such as garbage, illegal parking, and a graffiti incident. While there are some open service requests from 2024, these appear to be primarily related to street conditions rather than building-specific issues. The building's completion of the soft-story retrofit (classified as Tier 3) is a significant safety upgrade, and the property has maintained active responses to building code requirements since the mid-2000s.
