Augrented Insights Report

701 China Basin Street is a 6-story, 188-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 2016 and currently owned by Essex Portfolio LP. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and upgrade projects over the past few years, including comprehensive piping work in June 2023 ($47,700), and a major water testing and stucco/concrete repair project in 2019 ($350,000).

Most recently, in 2024, the building replaced all four boilers with new Intellihot units, following a series of boiler permit violations in 2022-2023 that required multiple Notices of Violation and a director hearing in August 2023. The building's infrastructure maintenance has included work on spa and pool boilers, backflow devices, and water treatment systems between 2019 and 2024, though one backflow device replacement permit from 2021 is marked as expired. The property has experienced multiple fire safety-related issues, with several violations documented between 2021 and 2024, including multiple fire code violations, blocked exits, and sprinkler system concerns.

Most concerning is an open violation from October 2023 regarding sleeping area requirements. The building has also generated multiple 311 calls regarding garbage, debris, and construction noise in recent months, with several cases being resolved but some remaining open as of early 2025. A significant enforcement case was closed in 2021 regarding illegal short-term rentals, which had reportedly involved numerous listings between 2018 and 2021 before the property owner was ordered to cease operations.
