38-40 Orben Pl, San Francisco, CA 94115

The two-unit residential building at 38-40 Orben Place in Lower Pacific Heights, owned by Russell A Fisichella Revoc, has undergone several significant improvements and faced some maintenance challenges since its construction in 1976. Most notably, a permit was filed in October 2024 for exterior improvements including replacement of wood siding with stucco and window/door upgrades.

Previous major works include a 2009 kitchen remodel (including cabinet replacement, new appliances, and electrical upgrades), a complete reroofing project in 2007, and dry rot repairs with siding work in 2005. The building has experienced some environmental and maintenance issues, including a sewage backup in 2012 that was promptly resolved, and multiple tree-related incidents in 2019 involving damaged trees that required removal and replacement.

There was one fire complaint in 2020 that was found to have no merit, and while there have been occasional issues such as graffiti (2019), a general cleaning matter (2024), and a tobacco-related health request (2020), these do not appear to significantly impact the building's habitability. The property has maintained compliance with regular maintenance requirements, as evidenced by the prompt resolution of permits and repair issues, though it's worth noting that the 2005 dry rot repairs were necessary to address a structural concern.
