1251 17th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94122

The 6-unit multi-family residential building at 1251 17th Avenue in the Inner Sunset, owned by Sallie A Enderlin Revocable Living Trust, has undergone several significant safety upgrades since its construction in 1962. Most notably, the building completed mandatory seismic retrofitting in 2017 as a Tier 3 soft-story compliant structure, demonstrating commitment to earthquake safety. Recent improvements include a 2018 fire alarm system upgrade that incorporated low-frequency sounders in all sleeping areas, with associated electrical work completed successfully in December 2017, despite an earlier cancellation of the permit.

The building has a history of addressing safety concerns, as evidenced by the resolution of multiple violations from a 2009 routine inspection, which included repairs to the central alarm system, fire escape drop ladder maintenance, and posting of gas meter instructional diagrams – all of which were promptly abated by March 2010. The property has undergone several maintenance and improvement projects over the years, including a roof replacement in 2010 costing $19,600. Historical records show a cancelled permit from 1986 for sprinkler installation, though the current fire safety systems appear to be adequately maintained.

The building has been subject to routine housing inspections in 2001, 2009, and 2018, with all issues addressed in a timely manner. Street-level maintenance concerns have been minimal, with only routine sidewalk cleaning matters logged through the 311 system, the most recent being a general cleaning request from August 2023. The property's documented history suggests regular upkeep and responsiveness to safety requirements, with no active violations or unresolved complaints at present.
