871-877 Vallejo St, San Francisco, CA 94133

The three-story multi-family residential building at 871-877 Vallejo St in North Beach, owned by the Edward H & May F Chan Family, consists of 7 units and was constructed in 1911. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the past decade, with the most recent being the installation of a new electrical subpanel completed in October 2024.

In 2020, substantial repairs were made to the wooden rear staircase, and in 2017, a major renovation project was completed including kitchen and bathroom remodels, electrical upgrades, and the addition of new lighting throughout the building. The property has experienced recurring issues with dry rot, as evidenced by repairs to the rear stairs in 2014 and siding replacement in 2015. The building underwent routine safety inspections in 2006 that identified multiple fire safety and security concerns, including issues with fire proofing materials and egress obstructions, though these violations were promptly addressed and abated by October 2006.

More recent maintenance work has included replacement of the main sewer line in 2014, furnace replacement, and various plumbing updates. The property has had several minor issues documented through 311 calls, particularly regarding driveway blocking incidents and noise complaints, though these do not indicate any widespread maintenance or safety concerns. Regular routine inspections and prompt attention to building violations suggest that major safety concerns have been effectively managed, with the most recent building improvements focusing on electrical systems and structural elements.
