1700 Larkin St, San Francisco, CA 94109

The three-unit residential building at 1700 Larkin Street in Nob Hill, owned by Alan & Rachel Pang Family T, is a three-story flats and duplex structure built in 1910. The property has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the past two decades, with the most recent major work being completed in 2019, including heater replacement to comply with a previous complaint. The building experienced substantial issues in late 2018, leading to a cluster of violations filed on November 27, 2018, which included problems with door hardware, interior surfaces, plumbing, and electrical systems, along with concerns about mold/mildew, fireplace service, and heating system distribution.

While these violations were addressed and abated by August 9, 2019, the building's maintenance history reveals several recurring system updates, including a complete electrical system upgrade in 2011 (including new panels and rewiring), plumbing improvements (new water heater and heating systems), and roof work in 2012. Earlier issues from 2001 included problems with rear stairs and a broken window that required repair. The building's recent history shows regular interaction with city services, particularly regarding garbage and debris management, with multiple Recology and Public Works calls throughout 2024.

These 311 calls primarily concerned abandoned appliances and general debris, suggesting ongoing challenges with waste management in the vicinity. A routine housing inspection in 2018 revealed multiple issues that required correction, but these were addressed within approximately nine months. The property appears to have maintained compliance with building codes following the resolution of these violations, and there have been no recent fire incidents or tenant buyouts on record. The building's major systems (electrical, plumbing, and heating) have received periodic upgrades, indicating ongoing maintenance attention from the ownership.
