1386-1388 Page St, San Francisco, CA 94117

The 2-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 1386-1388 Page Street in Haight Ashbury, built in 1900 and currently owned by Halbrecht Lvg Tr, has undergone several notable improvements and faced some significant challenges over the past two decades. Recent improvements include substantial window upgrades in 2021, with permits showing replacement of one front-facing window and 13 additional windows with energy-efficient vinyl double-pane alternatives, costing a total of approximately $14,500. Earlier renovations included electrical rewiring of three bedrooms and one bathroom on the third floor in 2005, which brought the electrical system up to code.

The building has experienced various maintenance issues, including exterior stucco work in 2005 to address minor cracks in the front wall, though some of these permits expired without record of completion. The property has faced several concerning situations in recent years, most notably during 2020 when multiple complaints were filed regarding unpermitted construction work, including concerns about building over easements and sewer lines, with one complaint in particular about unauthorized backyard construction still marked as active. A serious housing complaint from 2013 reported seven bedrooms without heat, though this complaint is no longer active.

More recent infrastructure issues have been documented through 311 calls, including a collapsed sidewalk in 2022, though this was subsequently resolved. The property has also experienced various routine urban challenges such as graffiti, parking violations, and tree maintenance issues, all of which have been addressed through normal city processes. While the building has seen significant improvements in energy efficiency and safety systems through various permits and repairs, the history of unpermitted work and some maintenance issues suggests ongoing attention to building conditions may be needed.
