1021 Francisco St, San Francisco, CA 94109

The property at 1021 Francisco Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Russian Hill neighborhood. Originally built in 1951, this structure underwent significant modifications between 1999-2002, including a major renovation in 1999 that added a third floor and a five-foot rear extension, followed by various revisions to the rear yard sidewalks and retaining wall.

The building has maintained consistent maintenance standards, with window replacements (eight windows on the fourth floor) completed in 2011 and various permit renewals processed as needed. The building's infrastructure has experienced some recurring issues, particularly with the sewer system, as evidenced by multiple sewage backup incidents reported between 2020-2022, including a notable incident in November 2022. The property has also faced parking-related challenges, with three verified complaints about driveway blocking in 2022-2024.

The building's recent history shows mostly routine maintenance and public service requests, including two graffiti incidents in 2023 and a couple of general public works service requests. While there have been three fire alarm activations recorded, all were unintentional with no injuries or actual fires reported. The property's complex history includes a significant attempt to convert the two-unit residential building into a single-family unit in 2003, which was ultimately cancelled, and subsequent mandatory discretionary reviews and appeals related to the unit merger that were denied or abated.
