1288-1292 Green St, San Francisco, CA 94109

This multi-family residential building, located at 1288-1292 Green Street in Russian Hill, is a 3-story, 3-unit structure built in 1913 and currently owned by Timothy R. Louie. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and compliance issues over its history, with the most recent substantial work occurring in 2016 when stucco repairs were completed at the front of the building, following a complaint that required approximately 300 square feet of repair work valued at $2,000.

The building experienced notable safety and compliance challenges in 2003, when multiple violations were documented regarding fire safety, including issues with smoke detectors, emergency exits, fire extinguishers, wood stairs, and combustible storage under stairs - all of which were abated by April 2003. There was also a period of water damage construction without proper permits in 2014, and a compliance matter in 2016 that required attention to damaged walls. Recent maintenance activity includes multiple street space permits issued in late 2016 and early 2017, each valued at $1.00. The building's recent history shows some recurring street-level issues as evidenced by multiple 311 calls between 2022-2024 regarding human/animal waste, graffiti, and other urban maintenance matters.

Tenant buyouts have occurred twice in recent years, once in July 2016 for $13,500 and again in March 2021 for $5,800 involving three tenants. The property has maintained active compliance with building codes since the 2003 violations, with no active violations on record. However, there were some expired permits in 2010 related to foundation and garage drain work that had originally been approved in 2001, though the work was completed according to the records. The most recent service requests have primarily been related to street-level conditions rather than building-specific issues, suggesting the major structural and compliance concerns have been addressed.
