1272 South Van Ness Ave, San Francisco, CA 94110
The three-story, 12-unit multi-family residential building at 1272 South Van Ness Avenue in the Inner Mission was constructed in 1990-1992, following the demolition of a single-family dwelling in 1989 and a storage shed in 1987. The building's early construction included the installation of fire sprinklers on all three floors in 1991, with a sidewalk permit issued in 2007. Progress Apartments Inc is the current owner of this Class A5 multi-family residential building.
The building has experienced several notable safety and maintenance issues over the years, most recently in 2023 when multiple violations were documented and subsequently abated within 18 days, including requirements for fire extinguisher maintenance, emergency lighting, gas utility shutoff tools, fire escape ladder maintenance, and various compliance affidavits. A routine housing inspection in 2015 and a 2009 inspection were also conducted, along with a brief heating issue in 2003 that was resolved within five days. In 2019, the building received fire code violations related to fire extinguisher servicing and emergency lighting, both of which were abated.
The most recent building improvement was recorded in 2013 with the installation of a direct vent gas furnace. The property has generated several 311 calls in recent years, primarily related to street cleaning issues, though these are mostly external to the building itself. While the building has a history of safety-related violations, it is worth noting that most have been promptly addressed and resolved, with no active violations currently on record as of March 2023.
