Augrented Insights Report

The 27-unit apartment building at 630-632 Alvarado Street in Noe Valley, constructed in 1965, has undergone significant renovations and faced various maintenance challenges over recent years. The property has seen substantial updates to individual units, including kitchen and bathroom rehabilitations, washer/dryer installations, and electrical upgrades across multiple apartments from 2021-2023. Notable recent work includes exploratory demolition and shoring support for compromised balconies in 2024, and a 2023 fire alarm system upgrade to comply with current safety standards.

The building has a history of addressing fire safety concerns, with multiple fire alarm system inspections and corrections between 2008-2023, though a sleeping area requirement violation was issued in November 2023. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues that suggest ongoing attention is required. These include water intrusion problems (most recently documented in 2021), window weatherproofing issues leading to mold growth (2021-2024), and a period of elevator service disruption in 2023.

The building underwent a major compliance effort in early 2023 to address violations related to sliding doors, deck surfaces, and railings, along with the legalization of its original 27-unit configuration. Historical violations from 2016-2018 included concerns about the central alarm system, structural maintenance, and mold/mildew, though these were subsequently abated. The building has had multiple fire incidents recorded, primarily related to alarm system malfunctions or smoke scares, but fortunately with no civilian injuries reported. Recent complaints through the 311 system have primarily related to exterior maintenance issues such as sidewalk cleaning and waste management.
