126-128 8th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94118

The two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building at 126-128 8th Avenue in the Lake-Presidio neighborhood, owned by Man Hong & Shiu Lin Cheung, has a notable history of compliance issues and maintenance work since its construction in 1908. A significant violation occurred in February 2010 when the front windows were replaced without proper permits, leading to multiple Notices of Violation (NOVs) from February 2010 through September 2013. The windows were finally replaced with approved fiberglass clad hung windows in 2014 at a cost of $8,000, resolving the four-year compliance issue.

Other maintenance work includes two roofing projects, one completed in 2004 at $7,000 and another in 2007 at $7,880, though the status of the 2004 permit is listed as expired. More recently, there have been several quality-of-life issues reported through 311 calls, including a sewage backup discharge in September 2024 and multiple instances of vehicles blocking driveways between 2022 and 2024, all of which resulted in citations. A potential illegal unit in the garage was reported in 2009, though this complaint is no longer active.

The building received its most recent major citation in 2010 regarding unpermitted window replacements, which was ultimately resolved in 2014. There were also two reports of abandoned Christmas trees in early 2021, one of which required pickup. The property appears to be in compliance with current building codes, with no active violations on record as of the latest data.
