1813-1817 15th St, San Francisco, CA 94103

The 6-unit, 4-story multi-family residential building at 1813-1817 15th Street in Mission Dolores, built in 1910, has undergone significant renovations and improvements over recent years, most notably a comprehensive seismic retrofit completed in 2018 (Soft Story Tier 3) that included major structural upgrades and the addition of an accessory dwelling unit (ADU). The building underwent substantial improvements in 2018-2019, including a $636,523 renovation of five apartments, common areas, and the basement passageway, along with the installation of a comprehensive sprinkler system throughout the building with both basement and window sprinklers.

Infrastructure upgrades included new plumbing systems, radiant heat systems, and complete electrical rewiring of all apartments in 2019, ensuring modern safety and comfort standards. The property has maintained active compliance with safety regulations, though it experienced some fire safety violations in 2022 related to sprinkler/standpipe systems, which were addressed promptly.

Historical records from 2002 show multiple building violations regarding fire safety equipment and building maintenance, but these were all resolved by November 2002. Recent maintenance concerns have primarily involved exterior issues, with multiple 311 calls in 2024 regarding garbage and debris outside the building, though these were mostly closed as "No Work Needed" or "Resolved." The building's recent history since 2018 has been marked by significant investment in safety systems, including a new sprinkler monitoring system and various routine safety inspections that have generally shown good compliance. Three tenant buyouts occurred in 2017 at values between $60,000 and $100,000, though the specific reasons are not detailed in the records.
