748-750 Fell St, San Francisco, CA 94117

The property at 748-750 Fell Street is a two-story, four-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1880, currently owned by Michael E. Guidry. The building has a complex history of modifications and compliance issues, most notably regarding unauthorized units.

In 2004-2005, there was significant enforcement action taken against the property for operating six dwelling units across three floors without proper permits, including two illegal units on the rear ground floor. This violation triggered multiple safety concerns relating to egress, fire separation, and fire protection systems, as well as unapproved electrical and plumbing installations. These issues were ostensibly resolved by June 2005 through various permits and corrections, including the removal of the illegal units and installation of proper electrical systems. The building's maintenance history shows regular upkeep of critical systems, including three roof replacements (1991 and 2017), electrical upgrades (2002 installation of 200-amp service with five meters), and various repairs to fire safety features.

Several routine safety inspections have been conducted over the years, with the most recent one in 2018. The property's location has experienced recurring issues with driveway blocking, as evidenced by multiple parking enforcement calls throughout 2024-2025, suggesting ongoing challenges with parking management in the area. The building's historical records also show attention to fire safety improvements in the 1990s, including the installation of fire proofing materials in 1995. While most historical violations appear to have been resolved, the frequency of parking-related issues in recent years warrants attention, though these are not directly related to building safety or habitability.
