1600 Castro St, San Francisco, CA 94114

This three-story, five-unit multi-family residential building at 1600 Castro St in Noe Valley, owned by the Eugenio Revocable Trust, has undergone significant recent upgrades, most notably a comprehensive remodel of Unit 4 completed in early 2024 costing $41,600, which included kitchen and bathroom improvements, new electrical systems, and plumbing modifications. The building has demonstrated a commitment to modern safety standards, with the installation of a new fire alarm system in 2022 (completed October 2022) to comply with San Francisco Fire Code requirements, including low-frequency sounders in sleeping areas and an upgraded fire panel.

The property has a history of remodeling work dating back to 2001, including various unit improvements and infrastructure maintenance, such as roof work, stair rebuilding, and electrical system upgrades. The building's historical records show a significant complaint in 2005 regarding unauthorized occupancy change from a real estate office to a hair salon and related accessibility issues, though these were resolved through permits for ADA compliance and other improvements.

Recent months (July-September 2024) have seen multiple 311 calls regarding street cleaning issues, primarily involving overflowing garbage cans and other debris, though these are external to the building itself. The building's safety record is generally positive, with no fire incidents resulting in injuries, though there have been several unintentional alarm system activations and CO detector tests showing no actual CO presence. The property continues to receive regular maintenance and upgrades, with the most recent work focusing on improving individual unit comfort and building systems.
