1563-1565 Lombard St, San Francisco, CA 94123

The two-unit residential building at 1563-1565 Lombard Street, owned by Brian & Alexandra McCarthy, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1923 in the Cow Hollow neighborhood. The property underwent significant modification in 2010-2011 when an illegal basement unit was converted back to compliance, which had previously prompted multiple safety concerns including inadequate egress, insufficient heating, and unapproved utilities - these violations were all officially abated by February 2012.

Subsequent improvements include a new 6'x9' rear porch added in 2013, kitchen and electrical work, and plumbing updates. Historical records show various maintenance activities, including foundation work in 1987, a kitchen fire restoration in 1996, and several routine repairs for issues like dry rot in 2005. Recent history from 2022-2023 shows multiple parking enforcement issues, with several citations issued for driveway blocking violations, particularly noting incidents involving Volkswagen Beetles.

There was also one sewer-related service call in April 2022 and a sewer line maintenance work completed in 2013. The building has experienced minor infrastructure issues over the years as indicated by various permits for repairs and upgrades, but no significant safety violations have been reported since the 2010-2012 period when the unauthorized basement unit was addressed. The property is classified as an R-3 two-family dwelling, and all known illegal modifications have been properly corrected through the 2010-2011 compliance process.
