1634 Fell St, San Francisco, CA 94117

The three-story multi-family residential building at 1634 Fell Street in Park North, owned by Kevin J & Keri Sheehan, has a complex history since its construction in 1892 with two units. The property underwent significant renovations in 1998-1999, including a horizontal addition and major interior remodeling, during which there were concerns about structural stability while the building was temporarily supported on steel beams, though this was addressed shortly thereafter. The building's maintenance history shows attention to basic infrastructure, with recent work including a complete sewer line installation in 2024, skylight replacement (2000), dry rot repairs (1997), and installation of a fire sprinkler system (1988).

Multiple building complaints from the 1990s raised concerning issues such as water damage, unsafe decks, and unauthorized unit conversions, though these appear to have been resolved. The property has faced periodic maintenance challenges, with several street cleaning and graffiti removal requests documented through 311 calls in recent years (2022-2025). An illegal short-term rental operation was reported and subsequently abated in 2016, following a court settlement agreement.

Minor fire safety concerns were raised in 2005 and 2012 regarding extinguishers and blocked exits, though these were found to have no merit. The building's recent maintenance record is less problematic, with no major safety issues reported in the past decade. While the property has had its share of historical preservation and maintenance challenges, most complaints appear to have been addressed adequately over time, with major infrastructure improvements continuing into the present day.
