1251-1255 6th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94122

The property at 1251-1255 6th Avenue is a 2-story, 5-unit multi-family residential building built in 1908, and is classified as a TIC building containing 4 units or less. The building has undergone significant improvements over recent years, with the most recent major work including a complete electrical system upgrade in March 2022 (400-amp service upgrade with new meters and subpanels), roofing work in August 2021, and several substantial interior renovations. In 2020, a new bathroom was added, followed by additional unit improvements in 2019 including bathroom remodeling, kitchen work, and electrical rewiring.

A notable structural improvement was the completion of a soft-story retrofit in 2015, demonstrating compliance with seismic safety requirements. The building experienced several maintenance and safety issues that were addressed in 2019, including violations for fire safety (fire extinguisher recharges), security (self-closing exterior doors), and interior conditions (paint, weather proofing, and wall repairs). These violations were all abated by July 22, 2019.

More recently, in April 2023, there was a complaint regarding chipping and peeling paint affecting an adjacent property, though this complaint is no longer active. The building has maintained compliance with all building codes since addressing the 2019 violations, and no fire incidents or civilian injuries have been recorded, with only one minor CO detector activation in 2014 that showed no evidence of CO. Recent maintenance activities and the completion of the soft-story retrofit suggest that major structural and safety systems have been properly maintained and upgraded to current standards.
