2608-2610 Leavenworth St, San Francisco, CA 94133

The property at 2608-2610 Leavenworth Street in Russian Hill is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building, constructed in 1939 and currently owned by the Reed A Westphal Family Trust. The building has undergone several significant renovations and improvements over the years, including a complete reroofing project in 2021 costing $29,500, bathroom and kitchen renovations in unit 2610 in 2008, and the installation of new furnaces in both units in 2015. In 1983, a 6'x10' horizontal extension was completed, followed by a kitchen remodel in 1985.

However, the building has also experienced multiple compliance issues and complaints over the years. Most notably, there were violations in 2005 regarding an unauthorized hot tub construction on the roof, which remains an active violation status. More recent complaints include allegations of unpermitted construction work in 2022 related to building height modifications, an incident in 2015 regarding unauthorized painting work with scaffolding, and several parking enforcement issues involving blocked driveways and abandoned vehicles in 2023-2024.

The building's maintenance history shows regular updates to essential systems, such as the 2021 roofing work and 2015 furnace replacement, suggesting ongoing investment in the property's upkeep. However, the persistence of the 2005 hot tub violation, recurring complaints about unauthorized construction work, and multiple parking-related issues indicate some ongoing concerns about property management and neighborhood compliance. The most recent building-related complaint, filed in March 2024, once again pertains to unpermitted hot tub installation on the roof, demonstrating a long-standing issue that has not been resolved through proper permitting and inspections. The property has also experienced three fire safety complaints in November 2010 regarding unspecified issues including alarm systems and blocked exits, though records indicate these conditions were corrected the same day.
