1124-1126 Irving St, San Francisco, CA 94122

The two-unit residential building at 1124-1126 Irving Street in San Francisco's Inner Sunset neighborhood, owned by the Dawson Family Living Trust, has undergone several significant improvements and changes since it was built in 1908. Most recently, in January 2023, an exterior spiral staircase was added to improve rear yard access, with related work on an existing rear staircase, representing an investment of over $17,000.

In 2021, both units received substantial updates including kitchen and bathroom remodels, along with plumbing upgrades including new water copper lines and gas houseline extensions. The building underwent important safety improvements in 2018 with the installation of a dedicated fire sprinkler system, indicating attention to fire safety protocols. Historical records show several ambitious but ultimately withdrawn or cancelled proposals, including a 2016 plan for significant vertical and horizontal additions and new commercial space, and a subsequent proposal to replace the existing building with a larger four-story structure.

The property has experienced recurring issues with exterior maintenance, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls regarding graffiti and debris between 2022 and 2024, though most cases have been resolved. While there was one alarm system activation recorded, it was confirmed as unintentional with no fire or civilian injuries reported. The building's recent history shows an active pattern of maintenance and upgrades by the current owners, with particular attention to modernization and safety improvements, despite the earlier proposals for more extensive redevelopment.
