846-848 North Point St, San Francisco, CA 94109

The two-unit residential building at 846-848 North Point Street in Russian Hill, constructed in 1907, has experienced multiple significant events in recent years, particularly related to water damage and unauthorized construction. Most recently, in April 2024, there were repairs completed for water leak damage on an outdoor deck in unit 846-848 at a cost of $3,200.

Concurrently, there were multiple complaints regarding unauthorized work in unit 846A, including electrical and plumbing modifications, and construction in the light well. These recent issues follow a pattern of similar concerns, as evidenced by a 2024 complaint about possible illegal units with kitchen and bathroom facilities, and prior violations related to landscaping and variance conditions. The building's history shows a mix of maintenance and regulatory challenges, including a cluster of fire safety violations in 2006 that were promptly abated, involving the need to recharge fire extinguishers and install smoke detectors.

More recently, between August and November 2024, there have been multiple reports of debris and furniture left on the street outside the building. Of particular note, there is an open fire code violation issued in January 2025 related to a property at 747-777 Beach Street. The building has undergone various permitted modifications over the years, including a 2012 application to extend an existing mezzanine and relocate a kitchen, though the ultimate outcome of this application requires verification.
