152-156 Langton St, San Francisco, CA 94103

The three-story, six-unit multi-family residential building at 152-156 Langton Street, constructed in 1908 in San Francisco's South of Market neighborhood, has experienced several significant events over its history, with the most serious occurring in 2017. A fire incident in March 2017 (documented in multiple complaints) caused damage to ground floor unit 152A, leading to subsequent repair work that included replacement of windows, a water heater, bathroom fixtures, and other materials.

This incident triggered multiple violations, including unpermitted window installations and fire safety concerns, though these violations were eventually abated by March 2024. The building has undergone several maintenance improvements, including a complete reroofing in 2015 (costing $9,000) and various unit-specific upgrades such as window replacements and bathroom fixtures.

More recently, the property has faced ongoing issues with exterior maintenance, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls throughout 2023-2024 regarding garbage, debris, and cleanliness issues on the property's exterior, though these are not directly related to building safety or habitability. The most recent building-related activity on record is a water heater replacement and bathroom fixture upgrades completed in 2018. While the building has a history of various maintenance and compliance issues, particularly related to the 2017 fire incident, there are no active violations or pending repairs on record as of October 2023, and the property has since undergone multiple necessary improvements to address past deficiencies.
