2638-2642 Larkin St, San Francisco, CA 94109

The three-unit multi-family residential building at 2638-2642 Larkin Street in Russian Hill, owned by the May Family Trust since 2003, has undergone several significant improvements since its construction in 1900. Most notably, the property has seen substantial infrastructure updates including the installation of a solar system in 2019 (2.722 kW with 9 modules), a direct vent gas appliance in 2017, and a series of sprinkler system modifications between 1998-1999 which, while initially approved in 1998, went through multiple revisions and renewals until 2000.

A major project in 1997 involved stabilizing a hillside and converting a garage front deck to concrete, though this permit ultimately expired. The building has had several routine housing inspections (2000, 2004, and 2006) with no noted violations, and there were two building complaints in 2013 related to adjacent construction at 2632 Larkin Street, primarily concerning alleged work hours and duration. Recent historical data shows various community-related incidents around the property, mostly involving parking issues and street maintenance concerns, with the most recent occurrences between 2019-2022.

These included multiple reports of vehicles blocking driveways or parking on sidewalks, and several complaints about loose garbage on the street. All these 311 calls were addressed by city departments, with most either being resolved or requiring no further action. The building's permit history suggests regular maintenance and upgrading of systems, particularly in the late 1990s/early 2000s, though some permits from that period were marked as expired.
