15-17 Kenneth Rexroth Pl, San Francisco, CA 94133

The two-unit residential building at 15-17 Kenneth Rexroth Place in Telegraph Hill, owned by Yu Trista Z & Yan Erik Siu, was constructed in 1906 and has undergone several significant renovations over the past two decades. The most substantial work occurred between 2002-2005, addressing various interior improvements including bathroom renovations, window replacements, and electrical upgrades with the installation of new lighting, switches, and circuits.

Notably, there were several permit applications and subsequent inspections to correct unauthorized modifications in 2003, particularly regarding an illegal basement unit that was eventually abated in 2012. More recent history from 2024-2025 shows a concerning pattern of sanitation issues in the immediate vicinity, with multiple reports of debris, including human waste, abandoned furniture, and other garbage on the street and sidewalk requiring intervention from Recology and Public Works.

Three fire-related incidents have been recorded, including one cooking fire that was contained with no civilian injuries reported. While the building underwent significant improvements in the early 2000s to address various maintenance issues, including bathroom renovations and electrical upgrades, the recent spate of cleanliness concerns around the property, while occurring primarily in the public right-of-way, may impact the overall neighborhood environment.
