230 Anza St, San Francisco, CA 94118

230 Anza Street is a 2-story multi-family residential building located in the Lone Mountain neighborhood, constructed in 1900 and currently owned by Jag Capital Development LLC. The property has a complex history of construction and compliance issues, most notably recent concerns regarding its vacant status. Most significantly, there is currently an active complaint from 2019 regarding work performed beyond the scope of two expired permits (201506229526 and 201506088434), where approximately 75% of the first and second floors underwent unauthorized reframing, affecting walls, roof, and floor assemblies.

The building has been subject to multiple violations of the Vacant or Abandoned Building Ordinance, with non-compliance issues recorded in 2016, 2019, and most recently in November 2023 requiring monthly monitoring fees. Previous attempted improvements and repairs, including a proposed conversion to three units with additional stories and a roof deck (2016), and several permitted renovations in 2015 for kitchen and bathroom renovations, roof repairs, and foundation work, appear to have been only partially completed or not properly finalized. Recent 311 calls and complaints from 2023-2025 indicate ongoing maintenance challenges, with multiple reports of garbage, debris, and encampment issues in the vicinity of the property.

The most recent inspection in early 2025 documented concerns about human waste, while previous reports cited issues with various types of debris and abandoned materials. Planning records show attempts to modify the property's configuration to include three residential units and add a basement level, as well as discussions about upgrading the building to have a new sprinkler system throughout, though many of these proposals have seen varying degrees of progress or withdrawal. The property's historical records from the 1980s show previous routine maintenance of stairs and siding, but the building has experienced increasingly significant structural and compliance issues in recent years, with particular attention required to address the expired permits and vacant building violations.
