2935-2937 Fillmore St, San Francisco, CA 94123

The property at 2935-2937 Fillmore Street in Cow Hollow is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1905 and currently owned by Ralph T Skinner. The building has undergone significant changes and faced various regulatory challenges, particularly regarding unit legalization. Recent activity includes ongoing improvements in 2024 involving drywall, flooring, doors, and kitchen cabinets (estimated cost $125,000), and efforts to legalize an unauthorized fourth-floor unit and garden-level ADU, with associated 52 square foot roof deck additions, following enforcement complaints in 2022.

The building's maintenance history shows some concerning past conditions, including a 2007 complaint documenting mice, wall cracks, and electrical issues, and a 2009 incident involving bathroom tiles and kitchen safety concerns, though these violations were officially abated by September 2009. Earlier improvements include a complete roof replacement in 2020 ($24,000), and various historical maintenance work including a cabinet replacement project in 1994 that has since expired. The property has also been subject to several planning reviews, most notably a withdrawn variance request for a rear dormer and deck installation, as well as a previous attempt to legalize an additional unit that was ultimately disapproved.

A 2019 UDU screening indicated evidence of unauthorized dwelling units, which has led to the current permitting efforts. The building's recent history (2022-2024) shows relatively few maintenance issues, with only minor exterior cleaning and parking-related matters recorded through 311 calls. The property's ongoing permits and recent substantial renovations suggest active management and investment in building improvements, particularly focused on compliance with current housing regulations.
