1373-1375 Vallejo St, San Francisco, CA 94109

The property at 1373-1375 Vallejo Street in San Francisco's Russian Hill neighborhood is a three-story, two-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1907 and currently owned by Yu Family Re 2 LLC. The building underwent several significant improvements between 1998 and 2011, including the installation of a garage fire sprinkler system in 2001, composite siding installation in 2011, and various interior modifications including the removal of a non-load-bearing wall in a third-floor living room in 2001.

During this renovation period, there were some building complaints, including an allegation of unauthorized work and demolition in March 2001, and prior to that in 1999, reports of serious maintenance issues including hazardous stairs, bathroom fungus, and air infiltration problems. Historical planning records show approved variances for raising the building approximately 5 feet to accommodate a basement-level garage and adding a partial penthouse, though these modifications appear to have been implemented under different ownership. Recent activity at the property has been minimal, with only routine municipal service calls recorded through 2025, including a parking violation report in late 2023 and some sanitation-related calls.

The most recent building permits on record are from 2013 for street space usage, though the low cost ($1.00) of these permits may indicate they were primarily administrative in nature. While the building has a history of maintenance issues from the late 1990s to early 2000s, most of the recent history suggests improved conditions, though the age of the building means ongoing maintenance requirements should be anticipated. The most recent documented building work was completed in 2011, and there have been no reported building complaints or serious violations in the past decade.
