1052-1062 Oak St, San Francisco, CA 94117

This two-story, three-unit multi-family residential building located at 1052-1062 Oak Street in Hayes Valley was built in 1900 and is currently owned by Roy E. and Patricia P. Shimek. The property has undergone various maintenance and improvement projects over the years, including a completed bathroom remodel in 2013, gas line relocations in 2014, main breaker repairs in 2019, and most recently, a complaint in May 2022 regarding defective windows and a broken refrigerator.

The building faced significant issues in December 2018, with multiple housing inspection complaints regarding alleged unsafe and illegal living conditions and carbon monoxide alarm violations, though these complaints were marked as "Not Active" in January 2019. A more recent filed permit from January 2022 for the demolition of two-story apartments suggests potential future development plans. The property has also experienced some historical maintenance challenges, including a 1997 complaint about chipping paint, floor holes, and inadequate heating, though this was resolved by early 1998. The building's records reveal various planning efforts for the property and surrounding area, including attempts in the past to reconfigure and expand the building's units and amenities.

Multiple permits have been filed over the years for various improvements, though some, like the 2013 bathroom remodel and 2012 reroofing project, were cancelled or filed without completion. The property has generated numerous 311 calls recently (2024) regarding street cleaning and debris issues, though these are primarily related to external conditions rather than building-specific problems. While there have been several historical inspection complaints and violations, most were resolved or marked as not active, indicating that many of the past issues have been addressed. The property's planning records show various proposed changes over the years, including potential rezonings and development proposals, with recent records showing a focus on expansion and improvement of vehicle circulation areas and residential units.
