425 Walnut St, San Francisco, CA 94118

The two-story, four-unit apartment building at 425 Walnut Street in Presidio Heights, owned by Donald E. and Jean A. Egan, was constructed in 1905 and has experienced several notable incidents over its recent history.

Most concerning is an open property damage case from August 2024 involving tree maintenance work affecting the building's window or structure. The building has undergone minimal major infrastructure work, with documented plumbing repairs including a gas line repair in 2018 and a sewer line repair in 2007. A significant cluster of violations was recorded in May 2002, during a routine housing inspection, involving multiple fire safety and security issues, including blocked egresses, missing smoke detectors, and security violations, though all were abated by June 21, 2002.

The building experienced a maintenance issue in 2015 when part of the ceiling fell due to a water leak, though this complaint is now marked as not active. There were routine housing inspections in 2002 (May) and 2008 (August), both of which were completed. The property has generated several 311 calls over the years, primarily related to street cleaning issues in 2010, an abandoned vehicle complaint in 2014, and most recently, the tree-related property damage case in 2024. While the building's violation history shows prompt correction of safety issues in 2002, the more recent tree damage incident in 2024 raises questions about ongoing maintenance and exterior upkeep.
