1241-1243 Green St, San Francisco, CA 94109

Located in San Francisco's Russian Hill neighborhood, 1241-1243 Green Street is a two-story, two-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1908. The property has undergone several significant changes and faced various compliance challenges over its history. Most notably, between 2004 and 2012, the building was subject to multiple enforcement actions regarding an illegal unit, which was ultimately addressed through permits in 2012-2013 that involved removing unauthorized kitchen and bathroom facilities, along with related plumbing and electrical systems.

In 2013, there was an attempt (later cancelled) to add a third dwelling unit, though the building remains classified as a two-family dwelling. The building has seen various infrastructure improvements, including HVAC system updates (2013), an electrical panel upgrade (2015), and recent plumbing work in 2023 involving ground waste line modifications. Historical maintenance issues included a cluster of interior violations in 2004-2005 related to damaged walls, ceilings, stairs, and lead paint hazards, all of which were resolved by September 2005.

More recent concerns around the property include a tree root damage issue affecting the sidewalk (2023) and occasional street cleaning matters, though these are typical urban maintenance issues rather than building-specific problems. The property has also undergone various system upgrades over the years, including furnace replacement and plumbing improvements, with the most recent significant work being completed in 2023. While the building's permit and violation history shows a pattern of compliance issues in the past, particularly regarding unauthorized units, these have been addressed through proper permits and remediation work.
