2064-2068 Golden Gate Ave, San Francisco, CA 94115

The property at 2064-2068 Golden Gate Avenue in Park North is a two-story, 5-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1900, currently owned by Michael & Linda Ballenger R. The building has experienced several significant structural issues over its history, with the most critical repairs occurring in 2006 when major foundation work was required at the rear northwest corner, including installation of new foundation, sill plates, and repairs to floor joists and studs, with the work eventually being shored up temporarily. This followed a series of violations in 2005 related to safety concerns, including problems with the fire escape, wood stairs, and smoke detectors, as well as general building violations that required multiple permits and repairs.

The building underwent routine safety inspections in 2005 and 2016, and while many repairs were completed, there have been multiple instances of housing code violations requiring attention over the years. The property's maintenance history includes roofing work in 1994 and interior repairs to address water damage in 1993. More recent issues have been relatively minor, primarily involving exterior maintenance such as paint chipping noted in 2011, and some isolated incidents of parking violations in the surrounding area, as documented in 2019-2022.

While the building has experienced multiple housing code violations and complaints over the years, most have been resolved through appropriate repairs and inspections. The most recent recorded fire complaint from 2012 was resolved promptly with conditions corrected. The building's most significant structural work occurred in the mid-2000s, with proper permits obtained and completed work, though some initial permits had expired before completion, necessitating further actions to address the safety concerns.
