Augrented Insights Report

The 16-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 1637 15th Street in the Inner Mission, built in 1925 and owned by Mission Housing Development Corp, has undergone significant infrastructure improvements and faced recurring maintenance challenges over recent years. The property completed mandatory seismic retrofitting in 2017 as a Tier 2 soft-story building, along with major updates to its fire safety systems including a new fire alarm system and smoke detector installations in 2018.

Significant plumbing and mechanical work was performed between 2017-2018, including boiler replacement, sewer repairs, and roofing projects totaling over $600,000. However, the building has experienced persistent issues with heating and hot water systems, with multiple tenant complaints about inadequate heat in 2019, 2022, and most recently in January 2025, as well as water supply problems documented in 2024. The building's maintenance record shows several violations related to heating, door security, and fire safety systems in 2018, though most were abated by July 2018.

Recent fire violations from December 2023 concerning sleeping area requirements and a 2022 violation regarding fire extinguishers remain of particular concern. The property has also maintained active plumbing infrastructure with repairs and updates continuing through 2023, including work on gas lines and sewer systems. Recent 311 calls from 2024 indicate ongoing issues with garbage management around the property, though these are more related to exterior maintenance than building systems.
