97 Barcelona Ave, San Francisco, CA 94115

The two-story, seven-unit multi-family residential building at 97 Barcelona Avenue in Anza Vista, owned by Anza Vista Investment LLC, was constructed in 1956 and has undergone several significant improvements over the past two decades. Most notably, the building completed mandatory soft-story retrofit work in 2017 (Tier 3), addressing seismic safety requirements. While there was an attempt in 2019 to add four ADUs with associated garage improvements (project valued at $340,000), this permit was ultimately cancelled.

The building has a history of addressing maintenance and safety concerns, including the replacement of aluminum windows in 2014, repair of stucco siding in 2010 due to termite and dry rot issues, and reroofing in 2008. The property has undergone regular safety inspections and responded to various building violations, particularly in 2008-2010, which included issues with fire safety equipment, stairway handrails, and a period of unpermitted stucco repair work. All these violations were subsequently resolved by 2011.

Recent records indicate maintenance of basic building systems, though there is an ongoing pavement defect issue reported in August 2023 and tree root damage affecting the sidewalk reported in 2021. Recent 311 calls primarily relate to exterior maintenance issues such as garbage disposal and debris on the property grounds. The building's most recent routine safety inspection was conducted in March 2017, and while there were multiple historical complaints regarding water leaks and safety features, all have been marked as "not active" with appropriate resolutions noted.
