Augrented Insights Report

The two-story, six-unit multi-family residential building at 246 28th Street in Noe Valley, constructed in 1964, has undergone several significant maintenance and safety improvements over the years. Most recently, in February 2023, the property received multiple compliance notifications regarding fire safety equipment and documentation requirements, including the need to recharge fire extinguishers and submit various safety affidavits, though the building's owners have been actively working to address these violations.

The building has completed its mandatory seismic soft-story retrofit program, demonstrating commitment to structural safety, and has addressed previous issues such as garage damage from 2013, unit #5 fire damage repairs from 2009, and termite/dry rot repairs from 1996. Historic maintenance records show attention to basic upkeep, including a complete reroofing in 2003 and window replacements in 2001.

The property has maintained active compliance with routine inspections, though the 2023 violations represent the most significant cluster of safety-related issues in recent years. External maintenance has been documented through various 311 calls in 2023-2024, primarily related to general cleaning and parking enforcement matters. The building's owners, Thomas P Jr & Anne N Dowd R, have consistently completed major repairs and improvements when required, as evidenced by the completion of the seismic retrofit and various other building permits throughout the years, though attention to current fire safety compliance is required to resolve the active violations.
