500 Lisbon St, San Francisco, CA 94112

The 5-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 500 Lisbon Street in the Excelsior neighborhood, owned by the Remigi Ileana Trust, was constructed in 1951 and has undergone several significant improvements and maintenance work over its lifetime. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2020 (cost: $90,000), bringing it into compliance with seismic safety requirements following a previous canceled permit for similar work in 2017.

The property has maintained regular upkeep, including a comprehensive water heater upgrade in unit #5 (2011), back stair repairs (2001), fire panel replacement (2004), and exterior maintenance such as reroofing (1994) and stair improvements (1984). The building has experienced various routine housing inspections and resolved multiple violations, particularly in 2001 and 2011, addressing issues related to fire safety equipment, exterior maintenance, and plumbing concerns including lead paint hazards. Recent history shows attention to safety systems, with multiple fire alarm and extinguisher-related complaints in 2020 and 2010 that were promptly corrected.

The building's soft-story retrofit was classified as Tier 3, with work now complete and a Certificate of Final Completion (CFC) issued. The property has had several fire-related incidents recorded, including CO detector activations, though with no civilian injuries reported. Recent maintenance records indicate attention to regular building systems, but there have been multiple recent 311 calls regarding parking violations and street cleaning issues in the vicinity between late 2024 and early 2025, primarily involving illegal parking and debris on public property, which are not directly related to building conditions but may affect resident access and neighborhood environment.
