1402 Chestnut St, San Francisco, CA 94123

1402 Chestnut St is a two-story, four-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1922, currently owned by Winola Dere Chu, located in the Marina neighborhood. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and repair projects over the years, with the most recent major structure-related issues occurring in 2024, including complaints about a cracked wall, peeling paint, and possible discoloration affecting the front facade. In 2014, the building experienced damage when a vehicle struck the front, requiring structural repairs to the garage area, which were completed at a cost of $11,000.

The property has a history of security and maintenance issues, particularly evident in 2003-2006 when multiple violations were recorded related to security requirements, including problems with door security, fire-proofing, and individual unit identification, all of which were eventually abated by July 2006. The building's systems have seen improvements over time, including a sewer lateral replacement in 2011 and an electrical panel upgrade for unit 4 in 2006. Recent maintenance concerns include ongoing issues with graffiti, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls in late 2024, and a 2024 complaint regarding exterior building conditions.

The building's history shows regular inspections and maintenance work, including significant structural repairs in 2009 involving stucco repair and dry rot remediation, bathroom and kitchen renovations in 2006, and various other smaller repairs dating back to the 1990s. Fire incident records show three minor events, including a contained cooking fire and two false alarms, with no civilian injuries reported. The property has maintained compliance with various building codes over the years, with most violations being promptly addressed, though the recent complaints about exterior conditions suggest a potential need for renewed attention to building maintenance.
