Rapid Knockdown and Interior Overhaul Between Laguna and Buchanan Streets

Responding to Friday afternoon dispatch reports of smoke and flames inside a second-story residential unit at 2100 Jackson Street, San Francisco firefighters brought the fire under control by 2:18 p.m. Crews opened interior walls and ceiling cavities in the affected apartment to inspect for hidden embers—standard overhaul protocol in older multi-story residential structures—while police and fire units closed Jackson Street between Laguna and Buchanan streets until the scene was cleared.

A 1923 Non-Ductile Concrete Apartment Building Slated for Seismic Retrofitting

The apartment complex at 2100 Jackson Street was originally constructed in 1923. According to a June 2026 report by SF YIMBY, building permits were filed in June 2026 to perform structural retrofitting addressing the property's original 1923 non-ductile concrete framing.

Publicly available architectural and property databases offer differing unit and story counts for the century-old Pacific Heights address: SF YIMBY's June 2026 coverage described 2100 Jackson Street as a 10-story building containing 12 residential apartments, whereas property-data platform Augrented lists the structure as an 8-story, 10-unit multi-family building. Augrented's property profile also records 8 fire-code violations at 2100 Jackson Street between 2016 and 2024, including citations logged in August 2024 and December 2024 involving sprinkler-system maintenance and inspection documentation.
