1381 20th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94122

The six-unit, two-story apartment building at 1381 20th Avenue in the Central Sunset neighborhood, owned by Marc Weber, was constructed in 1962 and has experienced several significant maintenance and safety updates over the past decades. Most recently, in 2023, the building underwent a comprehensive fire alarm system upgrade, including a new fire panel and the installation of low-frequency sounders in sleeping areas to meet current safety codes. This followed a similar fire safety upgrade in 2021 that included new smoke detectors and horn strobes.

The building has a history of addressing structural issues, with repairs to dry rotted siding completed in 2014 (following a complaint) and earlier in 2001, along with bathroom fixture replacements in 1999 and reroofing in 1998. The building had multiple fire safety violations in 2002 and 2014, including issues with fire escape ladders and egress obstructions, though all these violations were abated in a timely manner. More recent complaints from 1999 documented various maintenance issues, including plumbing problems and electrical outages, with one active plumbing issue regarding bathroom leaks still showing as unresolved.

The property has experienced ongoing parking-related challenges, as evidenced by numerous parking enforcement calls in 2024, particularly concerning sidewalk parking and driveway obstructions. A sidewalk defect was reported and resolved in late 2024, indicating continued attention to infrastructure maintenance. While the building has faced various maintenance challenges over the years, the pattern of prompt repairs and upgrades, particularly regarding safety systems, suggests active property management.
