Firefighters got the fire under control by 3:30 a.m., according to San Francisco Fire Department Public Information Officer Lieutenant Mariano Elias.
The fire department also requested that PG&E respond to the scene, according to Elias.
The cause of the fire is now under investigation.
The other fire happened in a vacant unit at 35 Dakota Street. Crews were dispatched there also around 3 a.m. when a fire alarm was triggered, Elias said.
Elias described the scene as a 2-story building with smoke showing on the first floor. Water was applied to the fire at 3:18 a.m. and the fire was under control at 3:23 a.m.
Because the property was intended to be vacant, the fire department contacted investigators about the circumstances of the fire, according to Elias
