452-454 Lily St, San Francisco, CA 94102

This two-unit multi-family residential building, located at 452-454 Lily Street in Hayes Valley, was constructed in 1900 and is managed by owners Sarin Rajash and Depasquale R. The property has a concerning history of fire safety issues, with multiple fire code violations reported between 2016 and 2024, including violations recorded in September and December 2024, as well as alarms systems problems in 2016 and 2018.

The building underwent significant repairs in 2001 to address dry rot issues documented by Lingruen Associates, and previous roof work was completed in 2010 at a cost of $10,000. A more recent water line repair was performed in February 2021. The property has experienced notable infrastructure challenges, including a furnace fume complaint in January 2002 that took several months to resolve, and a sewage installation dispute in 1997 involving neighboring properties.

There are records of recent sanitation concerns in the area, with multiple 311 calls in 2024 regarding human waste, garbage, and debris on nearby streets. A cancelled building permit application from 2019/2020 for a third level addition with roof garden indicates an abandoned attempt to modify the structure. The building's fire safety systems have required ongoing attention, as evidenced by the pattern of violations and corrective actions between 2016 and 2024, suggesting recurring maintenance and compliance challenges that may impact resident safety.
