1769-1773 Oak St, San Francisco, CA 94117

The three-unit multi-family residential building at 1769-1773 Oak Street in Haight Ashbury, constructed in 1904, has undergone several significant maintenance and repair projects over the past two decades. Most recently, in 2021, work was completed on the front staircase, rear wooden deck, and window replacements across all floors, costing $20,000.

The building has faced recurring maintenance issues, particularly with exterior structures: similar deck and staircase repairs were performed in 2016 ($7,000), 2007 ($15,000), and as far back as 1984, indicating ongoing challenges with these critical components. A notable cluster of building violations was recorded in September 2007, related to fire safety, stair conditions, and security requirements, though all these violations were abated by February 2008 through the aforementioned repairs. Additional infrastructure improvements include a complete main sewer line replacement in 2010 and completion of the underground conversion project in 2004.

The building has experienced two false alarm incidents, though with no associated injuries or fires. More recently, between September 2024 and November 2024, there have been multiple reports of driveway blocking, though these are unrelated to building conditions. The property has maintained compliance with all building codes since 2008, suggesting improved maintenance practices, though the recurring nature of staircase and deck repairs indicates these remain ongoing maintenance challenges.
