1930 15th St, San Francisco, CA 94114

The 8-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 1930 15th Street in Mission Dolores, owned by Milton K. Lee and Ellen Shew Bi, has undergone several significant improvements and faced multiple regulatory requirements since its construction in 1961.

Most notably, as of June 2024, the building is in the process of upgrading its fire alarm system to comply with current safety codes, including the installation of new equipment and monitoring features, with a permit value of $35,292. The building has experienced several maintenance and safety issues over the years, including a cluster of fire safety violations in 2002 that were promptly addressed by June 2002, such as problems with the fire escape drop ladder, central alarm system, and combustible storage requirements.

More recent building maintenance records show attention to essential systems, including the installation of a new 100-gallon water heater in 2016 and various exterior improvements such as siding installation in the 1980s and 1990s. The property has undergone routine housing inspections in 2002, 2006, and 2016, with the most recent fire-related inspections in 2019 showing access issues for hazardous materials and hoarding concerns, though these were marked as "No Access To Building" cases. The building's surrounding area has experienced typical urban challenges, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls between 2021 and 2024 regarding sidewalk and street maintenance issues, including debris, waste, and graffiti, though these external matters appear to have been consistently addressed by city services.
