5628 California St, San Francisco, CA 94121

The property at 5628 California St is a two-story, four-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1912, currently owned by Mark King. The building has undergone several maintenance and improvement projects over the years, with the most significant being a cluster of violations in May 2002 related to safety concerns, including the lack of smoke detectors in stairs and lobby areas, the presence of damaged paint creating potential lead hazards, and issues with combustible storage.

These violations were all addressed and abated by June 28, 2002. Other permitted work includes a local repair of rear exterior stairs in 1996, kitchen renovations in the same year, and an attempt at reroofing in 1995 (though this permit expired).

Recent history shows the building has maintained compliance with basic housing requirements, with only one routine inspection complaint recorded in April 2008 that was promptly resolved. Between 2020 and 2024, there have been multiple 311 calls regarding the surrounding area, primarily concerning illegal parking on the sidewalk and general street cleaning needs, though these are more about the neighborhood environment rather than building-specific issues. The property has demonstrated regular maintenance upkeep, as evidenced by the completion of necessary repairs and improvements following the 2002 violations, and there have been no recurring safety or compliance issues reported in recent years.
