2053-2055 Ellis St, San Francisco, CA 94115

The two-unit residential building at 2053-2055 Ellis Street in Anza Vista, constructed in 1900, has undergone several significant maintenance and compliance actions over the past few years. The most critical issue arose in December 2016 when a complaint was filed regarding disrepair of the front stairs, triggering multiple violations requiring repairs and proper permits.

This led to a series of permitted work, including a $31,400 project in 2017 (which expired) and a completed $1 project in 2019 to obtain final inspection under the San Francisco Historic Building Code. The building also received a new roof in 2019, with the work costing $19,800 and specifically addressing shingles not visible from the street. The property has documented a pattern of tree-related maintenance concerns over the years, with multiple complaints between 2009-2021 regarding overgrown trees and sidewalk-damaging roots, including two open cases from 2021.

Among more recent issues, there have been various 311 calls regarding parking (including on the sidewalk and driveway blocking), though these were generally resolved promptly. Historical records show consistent upkeep of the building's infrastructure, with roofing work completed in 1989 prior to the more recent renovations. All building violations and complaints regarding stair disrepair have been officially abated as of December 2019, indicating compliance with the required repairs and permits.
