1326-1328 Larkin St, San Francisco, CA 94109

The 2-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 1326-1328 Larkin Street, owned by the John E Wai 1981 Living Trust, was constructed in 1907 and has undergone various modifications over the years. Significant improvements were made between 2013-2015, including the installation of a comprehensive 3-floor fire sprinkler system ($37,376), electrical upgrades (200-amp service with 3 meters), and extensive interior remodeling work valued at $53,000 that included bathroom additions, kitchen relocations, and furnace replacements. More recently, in 2022, a concerning complaint was filed regarding water leaks, ceiling damage, and mold in the kitchen and bathroom, though this complaint is now listed as not active.

A current active complaint from 2018 alleges unpermitted construction activity with associated noise violations. The building's owner previously faced violations in 2005 related to combustible storage, lead paint hazards, and various interior repairs, though these issues were resolved by February 2006. The property has experienced several maintenance and safety-related incidents over the years, including multiple fire alarm system activations (mostly due to malfunction), a cooking fire incident, and the installation of various building systems such as new furnaces and water heaters.

Recent 311 calls from 2023-2024 have primarily concerned external issues such as graffiti, garbage, and sidewalk parking violations. The building was previously investigated for multiple illegal short-term rental violations, which were subsequently resolved, though there is currently an "Under Review" status related to possible illegal group home operations by Hacknsleep and Onelabs. Recent fire safety inspections in 2024 resulted in one unspecified condition being corrected.
