Augrented Insights Report

The three-unit residential building at 1251-1255 Union Street in Russian Hill, owned by See Dock Fan, has experienced several notable maintenance and compliance issues since its construction in 1908. The most significant incident occurred in March 2013 when the building was temporarily classified as abandoned, with documented problems including water intrusion, structural concerns, rotting window frames, missing shingles, and unsafe re-bar conditions extending into neighboring properties.

While this violation was abated within a week, it signals a period of concerning maintenance oversight. The building has required multiple roofing interventions over the years, including a completed project in 1991 and a $4,000 project initiated in 2000, though records show the latter permit ultimately expired. More recent maintenance concerns include a documented sewer issue in October 2023, which was transferred to the PUC Water Quality department for further attention.

The property has also been the subject of various street cleaning complaints over the years, with multiple reports of loose garbage in 2009 and a general cleaning request in 2014, though these were resolved through normal municipal processes. There was a red curb request in 2017, which was processed according to standard procedures, though no response was recorded. The building's documented history suggests periodic maintenance challenges, particularly focused on exterior upkeep, though most issues have been addressed through proper channels, with the most recent concerns relating primarily to infrastructure systems.
