1650-1654 Haight St, San Francisco, CA 94117

The property at 1650-1654 Haight Street is a three-story mixed-use building constructed in 1904, containing three residential units and commercial space, currently owned by the Patrice Racko Living Trust. The building has undergone significant renovations and faced multiple compliance issues over the past decades, with particular focus on accessibility improvements mandated by building code violations.

The most substantial work occurred between 2006-2012, involving the installation of ADA-compliant features such as bathrooms, a ramp, automatic door, and wheelchair lift, though this work experienced multiple permit expirations and required several follow-up permits to achieve completion. More recently, in 2022-2023, the building underwent plumbing upgrades including gas line installation and water heater replacement, along with electrical work to finalize previously completed installations. The property has faced several maintenance and compliance challenges, most notably a cluster of housing code violations filed in January 2020 regarding interior surfaces, plumbing, and safety systems, including mold/mildew issues, floor covering repairs, and concerns about smoke/carbon monoxide alarms.

While these violations were marked as "Not Active" with an abatement date of December 2024, they indicate past maintenance concerns. The building's commercial space has been active with outdoor dining approvals and ABC licensing for limited restaurant use, with the most recent permits reflecting ongoing commercial operations. Recent 311 calls from October-November 2024 have primarily concerned issues with garbage collection and sidewalk cleaning, suggesting some ongoing challenges with waste management in the area.
