1921-1923 Ellis St, San Francisco, CA 94115

The property at 1921-1923 Ellis Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1900 in the Western Addition neighborhood. The building, now owned by Bridgeway Vista LP, has undergone several significant renovations and faced multiple compliance issues over the past two decades. In 2018, a re-roofing project valued at $19,400 was completed, while in 2011, sewer repairs were carried out. A major renovation occurred in 2008, involving substantial modifications to the ground floor including beam replacement, structural improvements, and the installation of new bathrooms.

This work was initially met with multiple violations regarding unauthorized construction and safety concerns, including dryrotted rear stairs, which were ultimately resolved by 2009. The building has a documented history of unauthorized unit concerns, with multiple complaints between 2006 and 2013 suggesting potential illegal units in the basement and garage spaces. Building systems have received various upgrades over the years, including electrical rewiring, furnace installations, and plumbing improvements. More recent maintenance issues have included reports of mold, roof leaks, and a 2010 complaint about a deteriorating wall and illegal back stairs.

The property's infrastructure management has seen attention to exterior elements as well, with concerns about overgrown trees, sidewalk damage from tree roots, and periodic issues with street signs and parking violations in the vicinity. The building has experienced some historical safety and compliance challenges, including fire violations related to unpermitted work in 2006, though many of these issues were addressed through subsequent permitting and repair work. Recent history shows fewer major structural changes, with most maintenance concerns revolving around exterior elements and aging infrastructure. The property's permit and violation history suggests a pattern of proactive remediation by ownership, particularly following regulatory interventions, though periodic maintenance issues continue to arise.
