675 Dolores St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The 12-unit, 3-story apartment building at 675 Dolores Street, owned by Capitan Living Trust, has undergone several significant safety and infrastructure improvements since its construction in 1912. Most recently, in July 2023, the building received a complete roof replacement at a cost of $75,600. The property successfully completed its mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2015, demonstrating compliance with seismic safety requirements, and has since maintained its Tier 3 status with a Certificate of Final Completion issued.

Important fire safety upgrades have been implemented, including a voluntary fire alarm system upgrade in 2021 to meet San Francisco Fire Code requirements, and the installation of a new automatic and manual fire alarm system in late 2020. The building has maintained its basic systems through regular upgrades, such as a 2021 sewer lateral replacement and the installation of 24 electrical heaters in 2004. While there were several building code violations and complaints in the early 2000s related to stair repairs, fire proofing, and boiler permits, all were promptly addressed and abated.

A boiler permit issue surfaced again in 2009 but was resolved within a week. The property has had routine inspections resulting in minor violations, which have all been corrected. Recent 311 calls (2022-2024) have primarily concerned street and sidewalk maintenance issues outside the building, rather than internal building concerns. A fire safety complaint regarding extinguishers was filed in late 2021 but was marked as duplicate or without merit when investigated in 2022.
