626-628 Baker St, San Francisco, CA 94117

The two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building at 626-628 Baker Street in Park North, owned by Poskanzer Kira & Rotman Jon, was constructed in 1893 and has undergone several significant renovations over the past decade. The most substantial work occurred in 2017, when the rear building underwent comprehensive improvements including kitchen and bathroom renovations, foundation reinforcement, wood frame work, partition reconfiguration, and roof replacement, totaling approximately $106,000 in construction costs. This project also involved the installation of new French doors, window replacements, and extensive plumbing and electrical upgrades including a new 200-amp service panel and comprehensive rewiring throughout the living spaces.

The property has maintained an active maintenance record with various improvements, including a completed shower installation, furnace installation, and multiple systems upgrades in 2017. A solar installation project from 2012 for PV modules was cancelled. Recent concerns have primarily involved external issues such as parking violations, with multiple citations issued between 2020-2024 for blocked driveways and sidewalk parking.

There have been several municipal service calls regarding sidewalk defects, street trees, and graffiti between 2020-2022, though most were resolved through standard city processes. The building's fire alarm system had two complaints in October 2006, both of which were promptly resolved. A tenant buyout was recorded in September 2016 for $25,000. The property's maintenance and upgrade history suggests regular attention to building systems, though recent years have seen more focus on external neighborhood issues rather than building-specific concerns.
