Augrented Insights Report

The property at 1290-1292 Union St is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Russian Hill neighborhood. Built in 1915 and currently owned by the Glenn-gong 2020 Family Trust, this flats and duplex style building has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement works over the years.

Most notably, there were two concerning incidents in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic: one complaint in April reported construction work being performed during shelter-in-place orders, and another in May noted expired permits as of March 2020. The building has seen regular maintenance including reroofing work performed in 1992 and 2016, window replacements in 1998 (though these permits are listed as expired), and various interior upgrades including kitchen and bathroom work in 1998, which also show as expired permits. Recent history shows ongoing issues typical for the urban environment, including multiple 311 calls regarding street-level concerns.

These range from parking violations (with tow requests in February 2023 and December 2020) to illegal postings (February 2022), and various cleaning and maintenance requests such as garbage removal and street cleaning (March and June 2020). The building's permit and complaint history suggest periodic maintenance and upgrades, though some permits have expired without clear resolution, and there have been instances of work being performed without proper permits, particularly concerning window replacements in 2013. Importantly, while there have been several complaints about building-related issues, none of these indicate immediate safety concerns, and most have been resolved through proper channels.
