189 6th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94118

Located at 189 6th Avenue in the Lake-Presidio neighborhood, this 3-story, 7-unit multi-family residential building with retail space was constructed in 1908 and is currently owned by Antonio & Rita Castellucci. The property has undergone several significant modifications over the past decade, most notably the conversion of a retail space to a limited restaurant (Nourish Cafe) in 2014, which included substantial plumbing and electrical work totaling approximately $46,000.

The building experienced multiple maintenance issues in 2017, including water damage and mold problems, which were addressed between April and August 2017, along with necessary repairs to ceilings, walls, floors, and weather proofing. A heat pump installation was completed in 2021, and recent improvements include a new awning installation and signage in 2023, with additional painting work scheduled for 2025. The building has a documented history of maintenance challenges requiring attention to safety features, including repairs to handrails and guardrails in 2004, and rear stairs repairs in 2008 following Notices of Violation.

While there have been multiple fire-related incidents recorded, they were primarily false alarms or confined cooking fires with no civilian injuries reported. The property is subject to ongoing monitoring of tenant complaints and city department interactions, including recent concerns about early morning delivery noise. Regular inspections and necessary repairs have generally been addressed in a timely manner, and the building appears to be actively maintained by its current ownership, with recent permits indicating ongoing investment in property upkeep and improvements.
