4430-4432 California St, San Francisco, CA 94118

The 3-story, 6-unit multi-family residential building at 4430-4432 California Street, constructed in 1924 and owned by Doris Wong, has undergone several significant renovations and faced multiple regulatory challenges over the past decade. The most recent major work occurred in 2011, when extensive renovations were completed on the 2nd floor rear unit, including kitchen relocation, bathroom remodeling, and electrical improvements totaling over $52,000.

This renovation was part of a series of correctional measures addressing violations from 2010, which included removing illegal windows along property lines, addressing fire safety concerns, and compliance with building codes. The building has experienced periodic routine inspections since 2000, with several violations noted and subsequently resolved, including issues with backflow prevention, fire safety systems, and unauthorized modifications. More recent concerns have been relatively minor and generally external to the building itself, with 311 reports showing typical urban maintenance issues such as street cleaning, garbage, and graffiti complaints between 2019 and 2025.

There was one fire-related incident involving a malfunctioning alarm system, but no injuries were reported. The property has undergone multiple unit renovations over the years, including window replacements in 2009 and various kitchen and bathroom remodels, with proper permits obtained in recent projects including plumbing and electrical work. While there have been several building code violations and complaints, records indicate that these issues have typically been addressed and resolved through appropriate permits and corrections.
