1275 Stanyan St, San Francisco, CA 94117

The 1275 Stanyan Street property is a two-story, 4-unit multi-family residential building located in the Parnassus/Ashbury Heights neighborhood. Built in 1904 and currently owned by Smith 1991 Trust, the building has undergone several significant renovations and faced some notable incidents over its history. The most serious recent event occurred in August 2021 when a tree fell, causing moderate structural damage to the rear exterior wall and an interior partition wall.

This incident required subsequent repair work in 2021, costing $15,000. The building has also seen substantial improvements, including a major renovation in 2007 that involved kitchen and bathroom upgrades, window replacement, and electrical work, with an associated cost of $20,000. Additional improvements include the installation of a gas fireplace in 2016, and various other maintenance work such as patio door replacement in 2004 and stair repairs in 1992. The building has experienced three fire-related incidents, but none resulted in injuries or significant damage: two alarm system activations and one contained cooking fire.

A notable building violation from 2002 regarding fire extinguisher maintenance was promptly addressed. Recent activity around the property has primarily involved parking enforcement and street cleaning issues, with multiple reports of sidewalk parking and some garbage/debris complaints in 2024, though these do not directly relate to the building's condition or safety. The property underwent routine housing inspections in 2002 and 2006, which were successfully completed. Planning records indicate approved changes to the sideyard and rear yard, including expansion of non-complying building elements and garage modifications.
