7-9 Kimball Pl, San Francisco, CA 94109

The 8-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 7-9 Kimball Place in Nob Hill, built in 1911, has undergone several significant renovations and faced multiple regulatory challenges over the years. Most notably, there were several construction-related issues in 2006-2007, including complaints about unauthorized construction work and an illegal unit built behind the building, though these matters were eventually closed.

The building has received numerous renovations, including a 2003 garage addition with fire sprinkler installation ($25,000), 2006 kitchen and bathroom improvements ($10,000), and various electrical upgrades including garage door openers and lighting installations. The property has a history of fire safety and maintenance violations, with citations in 2000 and 2005 related to fire extinguisher maintenance, smoke detector requirements, and gas meter safety that were all abated by August 2000.

A recent complaint from August 2022 reported construction issues including ceiling damage and shower problems. The building's owners, Arvind & Anupam Bhargava, have attempted to address these various issues over time, and most recent permits and complaints are from several years ago, suggesting fewer major structural or safety concerns in recent times. The property has generated numerous parking enforcement calls in late 2024, indicating ongoing issues with parking management in the vicinity.
