15-17 Aladdin Ter, San Francisco, CA 94133

The three-story multi-family residential building at 15-17 Aladdin Terrace in the Russian Hill neighborhood, owned by Benjamin Dai, has undergone several significant renovations since its construction in 1907. The most recent permitted work, issued in July 2023, involves a bathroom remodel valued at $20,552, following some regulatory scrutiny in 2021 when unpermitted bathroom work triggered a complaint about contractor access through shared breezeways.

Earlier improvements include a completed bathroom remodel in June 2023, window replacement at the rear of the building, and substantial renovations in 2005-2006 that added a basement garage and elevator, with electrical upgrades including the installation of multiple circuits, panels, and lighting fixtures. The building has been the subject of various complaints and compliance checks over the years, including concerns about unauthorized remodeling work in 2005, issues with debris removal during construction, and questions about roof deck alterations in 2006.

A notable compliance matter was resolved regarding short-term rentals, with records showing a violation involving Airbnb listings that was subsequently addressed. The property has experienced recurring issues with parking violations in the surrounding area, with multiple citations for blocking driveways and illegal parking recorded between 2023 and 2024, though these are external to the building itself and primarily involve street-level concerns. The most recent planning matter involved a determination regarding lightwell infill work that was permitted under specific conditions.
