150 Gardenside Dr, San Francisco, CA 94131

The 15-unit, 4-story multi-family residential building at 150 Gardenside Drive in Twin Peaks, currently owned by Ac3 Lp, has undergone significant maintenance and safety improvements over the past two decades. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory seismic soft-story retrofit in 2016 (Tier 2, CFC Issued), demonstrating compliance with San Francisco's seismic safety requirements. Recent concerns include an active building complaint filed in January 2024 regarding common areas, as well as multiple fire safety violations in 2023-2024 related to sprinkler systems, alarm systems, and sleeping area requirements that are still being addressed.

The building has a history of addressing structural issues, including dry rot repairs (most recently in 2019 on the south side exterior wall), a major reroofing project in 2012 costing $59,000, and various deck repairs and renovations between 2000 and 2012. Fire safety systems have required ongoing attention, with multiple violations and repairs noted between 2019 and 2024, including sprinkler system maintenance, alarm systems, and fire extinguisher checks. The building's maintenance history shows consistent attention to structural and safety concerns, though several recent fire safety violations remain open or were only recently corrected.

Past issues with unpermitted construction were documented in 2000, 2012, and 1997, particularly concerning balcony repairs and resurfacing. The property has experienced periodic deck and balcony maintenance requirements, with multiple permits pulled for repairs between 1997 and 2016. Historical building violations from 2003 regarding guardrails and combustible storage in garages were resolved, though recent complaints suggest ongoing maintenance and safety monitoring is necessary. The building has also seen regular infrastructure improvements, including the installation of garage receptacles in 2012 and various other maintenance projects over the years, indicating ongoing investment in the property's upkeep and safety systems.
