5415 California St, San Francisco, CA 94118

5415 California Street is a two-story, four-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1924, currently owned by the Michael J Brady Trust. The building's most significant historical compliance issue occurred in September 2003, when multiple fire safety violations were documented, including the need for automatic fire sprinklers over garbage receptacles, smoke detector installation in the lobby, fire extinguisher maintenance, combustible storage concerns, and fire proofing repairs. These violations were successfully abated by November 2003.

The property underwent a substantial electrical improvement in 2013, receiving a 200-amp service upgrade with five meters and subpanels, which was completed. Recent activity at the property has been concentrated in late 2024, with several 311 calls primarily relating to garbage and debris issues, including multiple reports of overflowing city garbage cans and abandoned furniture. Notably, there was a sewage back-up discharge incident reported in December 2024 that was resolved through field work.

The building's current permit history shows limited activity, with the only significant permit being from May 1984 to bring the building into full compliance, though this permit has since expired. While there was one recorded gas leak incident, no civilian injuries were reported. The property's historical violation and complaint records indicate that the major fire safety issues from 2003 were addressed, though more recent complaints suggest ongoing concerns about waste management and maintenance in the surrounding area.
