6847-6849 California St, San Francisco, CA 94121

The three-story multi-family residential building at 6847-6849 California Street in the Central Richmond neighborhood, owned by Yee Kin C & Stephanie, was constructed in 1911 and contains two units. The building underwent significant renovations between 2008-2014, including the installation of a comprehensive fire sprinkler system in 2009 (with 74 heads connected to the city main), electrical upgrades including 200-amp service and new wiring infrastructure, and extensive plumbing work including the installation of two gas furnaces. A notable complaint was filed in September 2008 regarding unauthorized demolition work beyond the scope of permitted renovations, though this was abated shortly thereafter.

The building received various inspections throughout the renovation period, with multiple permits being finalized in 2013. In recent history, the property has experienced several infrastructure-related issues, with multiple 311 calls in 2024 regarding sidewalk problems, including collapsed sidewalk and tree root damage. These issues remain open as of October 2023.

The building's recent maintenance history shows attention to garbage management, with resolved cases for debris and abandoned vehicles near the property. The property underwent major improvements during the renovation period, including bathroom and kitchen remodels, elevator installation (though initial permit expired), and electrical system upgrades. A fire alarm system issue was reported and corrected in 2011, and there was one environmental exemption processed in relation to the property. The extensive renovation work completed between 2008-2014 included comprehensive updates to meet modern safety and accessibility standards, though some permits required subsequent final inspections to close out the work.
