559 Alvarado St, San Francisco, CA 94114

The two-story multi-family residential building at 559 Alvarado Street in Noe Valley, owned by Loops Trust, is a well-maintained 1892 structure that has undergone significant recent improvements totaling over $1 million in 2019-2020. The property has seen substantial modernization and safety upgrades, including the installation of a comprehensive fire sprinkler system throughout the building in 2020 ($38,300), a new fire alarm system for sprinkler monitoring in 2021 ($4,000), and major seismic improvements including foundation replacement in late 2019 ($150,000).

The building's interior has been extensively renovated, with records showing complete remodeling of four and a half bathrooms, two kitchens, and two laundry rooms, along with the installation of underfloor heating and new boilers in 2020 ($100,000+), and relocation of units within the building to optimize space. Recent maintenance work includes a complete reroofing project in 2020 ($18,500), electrical system upgrades with 200-amp service installation in 2020, and plumbing improvements including new gas lines and drainage systems. A sewage backup incident was reported and resolved in June 2022, marking the only significant infrastructure-related issue in recent years.

The building had one housing inspection complaint filed in 2016 regarding potential lead contamination from paint sanding, though this complaint is listed as not active. Older permits from 1996 for reroofing are now expired. The property has also maintained compliance with city regulations regarding waste management, with two resolved complaints about trash can placement in 2014.
