1221-1223 Divisadero St, San Francisco, CA 94115

The 1221-1223 Divisadero Street property is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building with a retail space, constructed in 1905 and currently owned by Li Huai Yu. The building underwent significant renovations in 2004, including comprehensive work on two kitchens and bathrooms, bedroom enlargements, and electrical upgrades, costing approximately $50,000.

This renovation period was marked by several building violations related to unauthorized construction of a rear deck and modifications without proper permits, though these were ultimately abated by January 2005. Subsequent improvements included electrical lighting upgrades in 2014, plumbing installation work in 2015, and exterior signage installation in 2019. The property experienced some infrastructure challenges, including a water infiltration issue in 2010 that was addressed through previously completed drainage work from 2009.

Recent maintenance concerns include tree root damage to sidewalks reported in 2022 and various graffiti incidents, though the latter were promptly resolved. The building's maintenance history shows regular attention to both residential and commercial aspects, with most significant issues being addressed through proper permits and inspections after the initial violation period. The most recent building-related activity was a street space permit issued in 2007, and there have been no major building violations or complaints in the past decade, suggesting improved compliance with building codes and regulations.
