1370-1374 Natoma St, San Francisco, CA 94103

The property at 1370-1374 Natoma Street is a two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1906, currently owned by 1370 Natoma LLC. The building underwent extensive renovations between 2019-2023, including the addition of a new basement unit, installation of full fire sprinkler systems throughout (completed in 2020 for $30,000), comprehensive plumbing upgrades including radiant heating, and electrical rewiring with new service installation for all units. Recent maintenance includes waterproofing work on stairs to the roof completed in 2023, and a kitchen remodel in 2022.

The building has experienced several significant events and issues that warrant attention. In 2018, multiple building violations were documented, including problems with smoke detectors, floor coverings, light fixtures, security locks, interior surfaces, and mold, though all these violations were abated by May 2018. More recent concerns include an active complaint from February 2023 regarding unauthorized roof deck construction and complaints about construction noise and working under expired permits in 2022.

A water heating issue and ceiling leakage complaint was filed in January 2023. The property showed substantial construction activity during 2020-2023, with multiple complaints about noise, dust, and construction debris impacting neighboring properties. While the building has undergone significant improvements and many safety-related upgrades, including a new fire alarm system and electrical improvements, the pattern of construction-related complaints and recent complaints about unauthorized work suggests ongoing management challenges related to maintenance and permit compliance.
