Fire safety
The legal use of this property is a Type 5 constructed, R2 occupancy with 30 apartments and 4 guest rooms on 4 floors over the basement level built in 1910. An inspection conducted on August 26, 2015 revealed that an area of the first floor level, identified by A on the door, was remodeled as an efficiency apartment and is being used as an additional rental unit. A Hazardous Condition exists because these units were built without the benefit of Building, Plumbing and Electrical Permits and Related Inspections. Permit Research failed to produce evidence that any valid permits were issued to alter this building to its present use or add this unit. It is estimated that these units were added after January 1, 2003. The following Life Hazards were noted at the time of inspection: Illegal Change of Use and Occupancy 1101 SFHC, 109A.1 SFBC Work Without Permit 301 SFHC, 108.4.1 SFBC The unit does not meet the minimum size for an efficiency. 1208.4 SFBC The unit is not provided with a separate closet. 1208.4 SFBC The unit is not provided with a bathroom consisting of a water closet, lavatory and a bathtub or shower. 1208.4 SFBC There is Unapproved Plumbing 1001f SFHC There is Unapproved Electrical Work 1001e SFHC Improper Egress, No Emergency Egress 801, 1001m SFHC There is no certainty that the required One Hour Fire Rated materials were used at the time of construction SFHC 1001n & SFBC 709 Lack of required Natural Light and Ventilation 504 SFHC This property is deemed to be a Nuisance 401.2, 1001d SFHC
