415 Frederick St, San Francisco, CA 94117

The property at 415 Frederick Street is a 2-story, 3-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1900, currently owned by Terence M Hurley. The building has undergone several significant infrastructure upgrades over the past decade, including a $32,500 reroofing project completed in 2018, installation of new water heating systems in 2014 and 2015, and a comprehensive electrical upgrade in 2014 that included a new 200-amp service. The building has a history of maintenance and safety compliance issues, particularly evident in a series of building violations recorded in 2012-2013 that addressed fire safety, security, and structural concerns.

These violations included requirements for fire extinguishers, smoke detectors, self-closing doors, and repairs to windows and interior surfaces, most of which were marked as abated by April 2013. Of particular concern are multiple tenant complaints between 2012 and 2014 regarding illegal units, structural deficiencies, and various habitability issues. Reports documented problems such as poor sound insulation, electrical wiring concerns, plumbing issues, and indications of pest problems.

The building's conversion from a 2-family to a 3-family dwelling without providing the required off-street parking spaces was addressed through a variance approval. Recent years show fewer documented complaints or violations, suggesting improved maintenance, though there have been occasional parking enforcement issues on the street outside the building, as evidenced by two citations for blocking the driveway in late 2019. The property underwent several infrastructure improvements between 2012 and 2015, including gas line work and various plumbing upgrades, suggesting ongoing efforts to address the building's systems and infrastructure.
