2253 Union St, San Francisco, CA 94123

The three-story mixed-use building at 2253 Union Street in Cow Hollow, constructed in 1904, currently contains three residential units and is owned by 2253 Union Street LLC. Most recently, in 2022, the building underwent HVAC system upgrades with the installation of two new furnaces and an air conditioning unit, though the permit status is marked as expired. The building's maintenance history reveals several significant interventions, including a 2011 repair of dry rot and mold under the rear stairway, and a 2007 project involving the replacement of five French doors.

Earlier records from the 1990s show completed work on non-bearing partition walls and electrical updates, as well as sprinkler head changes. The property has been the subject of multiple planning considerations, including a notable proposal to convert the building into a 15-room Bed and Breakfast Inn, which required a variance for off-street parking due to the building's location in a C-2 commercial district. This proposal was ultimately approved, but it appears to have been implemented in a manner that triggered additional modifications.

Recent (2023-2024) activity around the property has mainly involved street-level maintenance issues, with multiple reports of general cleaning needs, including loose garbage and waste on sidewalks. The most recent maintenance complaint in December 2024 involved street cleaning, while earlier 2024 incidents included construction equipment blocking a sidewalk and graffiti on public property. These exterior maintenance issues, while not directly affecting building safety or habitability, indicate ongoing challenges with the immediate street environment.
