1975-1979 Mcallister St, San Francisco, CA 94117

The three-unit multi-family residential building at 1975-1979 McAllister Street in the Park North neighborhood is a 3-story flats and duplex structure built in 1900 and currently owned by the William E Kaul 2015 Revocable Trust. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the past two decades, with the most recent major work being a voluntary foundation upgrade in 2013 costing $6,000 to improve the rear foundation and cripple wall. The property has experienced recurring issues with wood deterioration and pest infestations, with multiple permits for termite and dry rot repairs being issued between 2000-2001.

Access and safety aspects have been a focus, with repairs to front stairs following a termite report in 2001 ($10,000) and a completed kitchen renovation in 2010 ($4,000) for unit 1979A. The building underwent routine safety inspections in 2004 and 2017, and while there was one noise complaint in 2010 regarding unpermitted renovation work, there have been no recent building-specific violations. In terms of external environment and infrastructure, the property has recently faced various challenges as evidenced by numerous 311 calls throughout 2024.

These include reports of sewer odor, illegal parking, and multiple instances of garbage and debris issues. There have been specific concerns about hazardous materials, including glass, and instances of human or animal waste on the sidewalk. While most of these cases have been resolved and closed, the recent pattern of sidewalk maintenance issues suggests ongoing challenges with the immediate street environment. The building's maintenance history shows attention to structural and safety matters over time, with particular focus on addressing wood-related deterioration, though some permits from the 2000s remain in an expired or cancelled status.
