SF officials investigate allegedly illegal rooms at Twitter headquarters, as Elon Musk slams Mayor Breed

San Francisco officials are investigating a complaint alleging that Twitter illegally converted part of its headquarters into bedrooms.

The complaint was dropped off at the city’s 311 service by a user on the social media network itself, after Forbes reported that some conference rooms had been converted into “modest rooms with unmade mattresses, drab curtains and giant telepresence monitors in conference rooms” .

Anonymous Twitter employees told Forbes that approximately four to eight bedrooms per floor were installed in the building at 1355 Market St. The Chronicle was unable to independently verify the claims. City records show that there were no applications to convert any part of the building to residential use.

Twitter owner Elon Musk appeared to confirm the company had installed beds and criticized the mayor of London Breed for scrutinizing the company rather than focusing on the city’s drugs crisis.

“So the city of SF is attacking companies that provide beds for tired employees instead of making sure kids are safe from fentanyl. Where are your priorities @LondonBreed! ? » Musk posted on Twitter, link to a Chronicle story about reported fentanyl overdose in 10-month-old baby.

The city’s building inspection department is looking to perform a site inspection for possible violations and has contacted the building manager for more information.
