2215-2217 Webster St, San Francisco, CA 94115

The three-unit, two-story multi-family residential building at 2215-2217 Webster Street in Pacific Heights, owned by Pauline Po Lam Ho, has undergone several significant improvements and faced various maintenance challenges since its construction in 1900. Most notably, the building completed mandatory soft-story seismic retrofit work as a Tier 3 property in 2021, following a failed initial permit application in 2017 that led to a code enforcement complaint about unfiled permits.

In 2015-2016, the property underwent a substantial kitchen remodel in unit #1, including electrical upgrades, though this work was initially questioned in a 2015 complaint about possible unpermitted work. The building has experienced recurring moisture and mold issues, with multiple complaints filed in 2011 and 2013 regarding window leaks, wall damage, and mold odors, though these violations were eventually abated by January 2012.

Historical maintenance records show various improvements including a kitchen remodel ($20,000) in 2015, roofing work in 2013, and the addressing of multiple building violations between 2000-2017, such as door repairs, window frame issues, and fire safety matters including smoke detector installation and fire extinguisher recharge requirements. More recent concerns have primarily been related to exterior maintenance and parking issues, including multiple reports of parking meter damage and general street maintenance matters, with all recent 311 calls being resolved. The building's fire safety history shows three smoke detector activations, though none resulted in injuries or major incidents, and three complaints regarding combustible materials in 2009 which were promptly corrected.
