1938-1942 Leavenworth St, San Francisco, CA 94133

The property at 1938-1942 Leavenworth St in Russian Hill is a three-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1916, currently owned by Survivor's Trust-ying J & M. The building has undergone several significant recent modifications, most notably a September 2024 permit for expansion of conditioned living space and a November 2024 exploratory demolition to assess dryrot damage and plumbing leaks on the first floor.

Historical records show previous work including roofing (2001), backyard stair repairs (2008), and various maintenance projects from the 1990s. The building had some fire safety violations in 2006 regarding fire extinguishers and wood stairs, though these were promptly addressed within one month. Recent municipal activity around the building in 2023-2024 has included multiple street cleaning and maintenance issues, particularly concerning waste removal and abandoned furniture, as well as two incidents of vehicles blocking driveways.

A water leak issue was reported and resolved in July 2024. The property's ongoing improvements, including the current construction work, suggest active maintenance though the exploratory demolition for water damage assessment raises potential concerns about building condition. The planned conversion of unconditioned living space to conditioned living space, particularly in the garage area, indicates significant interior modifications while preserving the existing three-unit structure and independent access to each unit.
