1257 9th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94122

The three-story, five-unit multi-family residential building at 1257 9th Avenue in San Francisco's Inner Sunset neighborhood, owned by Perry Leland H Trustee, was constructed in 1906 and has undergone several significant improvements over the years. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory seismic upgrade in 2017 as a Tier 3 soft-story structure, involving the installation of new shearwalls, foundations, and other structural improvements at a cost of $120,000.

Recent maintenance includes the installation of new aluminum-clad wood windows in 2019 and plumbing work to replace leaking drains and downspouts in 2018. The building received a comprehensive fire safety inspection in December 2007, which identified multiple issues including problems with fire escape ladders, obstructions, smoke enclosure doors, and alarm systems - all of which were resolved by January 2008. The property has undergone various maintenance and improvement projects over its history, including a roof replacement (1991), vinyl siding installation (1990), and code compliance upgrades (1983).

Recent activity around the building has primarily consisted of parking-related issues, with multiple complaints about illegal parking and damaged parking meters in the vicinity between 2023 and 2024. While there are no active building violations or complaints on record, the concentration of parking enforcement issues suggests ongoing challenges in the immediate area, though these are external to the building itself. The most recent building-related work appears to have been completed satisfactorily, with a Certificate of Final Completion (CFC) issued for the soft-story retrofit work.
