240-242 Carl St, San Francisco, CA 94117

The property at 240-242 Carl Street is a 3-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1908, currently owned by Philip Bellber. The building has undergone several significant modifications and faced various safety and structural issues over the past two decades, with the most pressing concerns being related to foundation stability.

Notably, there is an active complaint from 2020 regarding foundation damage allegedly caused by adjacent construction work, with monitoring fees applying as per SFBC 110A Table 1A-K requirements. In 2023, approved plans were put in place to address these issues through substantial renovations including the addition of a basement level and combination of units, though these repairs are still in progress as evidenced by a November 2023 permit for rear stairs repair. The building's maintenance history shows regular attention to structural and safety issues, including multiple repairs to rear stairs (2006, 2023), heating system upgrades (2011), and several kitchen and electrical improvements (2010-2012).

Several violations have been recorded and subsequently resolved, including interior heating problems in 2011 and multiple fire safety concerns in 2006-2011. The property has experienced recurring issues with garbage management, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls in 2024 regarding abandoned debris and parking violations. While many past violations have been resolved, the property has a history of construction-related concerns, with the most recent major work approved in 2023 costing approximately $700,000 to address previous foundation damage and renovate living spaces.
