65 Cook St, San Francisco, CA 94118

The property at 65 Cook Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in the Jordan Park/Laurel Heights neighborhood. Built in 1900 and owned by Susan Chan Law, this flats/duplex building has undergone several significant repairs and improvements over the past decades. The most recent major work performed was in 2015, when approximately $4,000 was spent on repairing rotting stairs at the back of the house, though this was preceded by a complaint in the same year regarding unauthorized stair repairs.

The building has a documented history of stair-related issues, with multiple repairs attempted between 1988-2015. Other notable improvements include window replacements (2004), rear bedroom expansion (2003), electrical upgrades (2003), and various repairs including addressing dry rot and roof leakage (2000). The property experienced several building violations in October 2000, including issues with lead-based paint, damaged walls, stairs requiring repair, and various plumbing/electrical concerns, all of which were abated by November 2000.

More recent concerns have emerged regarding exterior maintenance, with multiple complaints in 2024 about garbage bin management and building upkeep, including a complaint about uncollected trash from August 2024. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of addressing structural and safety concerns over time, with both completed permits and some cancelled permits indicating ongoing maintenance efforts. A carbon monoxide detector activation incident was reported but resulted in no CO detection or civilian injuries.
