510 26th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94121

The 34-unit, 5-story apartment building at 510 26th Ave in the Central Richmond neighborhood, managed by Meislin 1999 Family Trust, has undergone significant changes and improvements since its construction in 1926. Recent major work includes the installation of new boilers (September 2023), seismic strengthening (January 2020), and comprehensive fire safety upgrades including a new sprinkler system, fire alarm system, and related equipment (2020).

The building has maintained its telecommunications infrastructure, with recent installations of antennas and equipment for Dish Wireless and T-Mobile in 2022 and 2020. Two ADU units were successfully integrated into the ground floor, increasing the unit count to 34. Recent maintenance issues have been addressed, including a 2023 violation regarding sleeping area requirements that has since been rescinded.

The building experienced several notable incidents, including recurring elevator rescue operations and occasional alarm system malfunctions, though no civilian injuries have been reported in these cases. Recent 311 calls from 2024 indicate ongoing maintenance needs, particularly regarding sidewalk conditions and a sewage discharge issue that was promptly resolved. While the building has a history of violations and complaints (notably in 2003-2017), most have been addressed or resolved, and recent building improvements suggest ongoing maintenance and upgrading of essential systems.
