209-215 Anzavista Ave, San Francisco, CA 94115

The property at 209-215 Anzavista Ave is a 2-story, 4-unit multi-family residential building located in the Anza Vista neighborhood and owned by the Alexander Teplitsky Trust 1. Built in 1947, this apartment building has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the years, with the most recent major work being a $29,000 reroofing project completed in 2020. Other notable improvements include a complete copper repipe of all four units and main line from meter in 2013, and multiple dry rot repairs in the 1990s that addressed various structural issues including front stairs, landing deck, and front wall and garage header damages.

The building experienced a cluster of fire safety and structural issues in October 2008, during a routine safety inspection, which resulted in several violations that were all abated by December 2, 2008. These violations included problems with storage in the garage, top of rear stairway, laundry area, and issues with fire extinguisher maintenance and smoke detector functionality. Three routine safety inspections have been conducted since 2000 (2000, 2004, and 2017), with no active violations noted from the most recent inspection in 2017.

The property has not had any building violations or complaints since 2008, indicating improved maintenance compliance in recent years. The surrounding area has experienced several infrastructure issues, with multiple reports of pavement defects near the property in 2015, though these were external to the building itself and were addressed by city services. While the building's maintenance history shows attention to major systems like plumbing and roof maintenance, and previous structural issues appear to have been resolved, the property manager's historical responses to violations and regular safety inspections suggest that ongoing attention to building systems and safety compliance has been maintained, particularly since the significant violations of 2008 were addressed within approximately two months. The most recent major building improvement (the 2020 reroofing project) demonstrates continued investment in the property's maintenance.
