1319-1321 Cole St, San Francisco, CA 94117

Located in the Parnassus/Ashbury Heights neighborhood, 1319-1321 Cole St is a two-story, two-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1909, currently owned by the Alexander W Brown Exem Tr estate. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the past decades, with the most recent notable building issue being a sewage backup incident in February 2021 that required attention from PUC Sewer Operations.

The property has experienced recurring issues with dry rot, with repairs documented in 1992 and 2003, and in 2005, work was completed to replace rotten wood stairs at the rear of the building, which served as emergency egress. Window upgrades were attempted in 2003 and 2004, though the permits for these improvements expired without confirmation of completion.

The building's maintenance history shows attention to structural integrity and safety, particularly regarding egress access. Recent external incidents near the property have included street cleaning matters, parking violations (including driveway blockages), and various urban maintenance issues such as graffiti removal and pavement defects, all of which have been addressed by city services. While the building appears to be generally well-maintained in terms of structural issues, the relatively recent sewage backup incident and the unresolved status of some window replacement work from 2003-2004 are notable building-specific events.
