Augrented Insights Report

The three-story multi-family residential building at 119-121 Cornwall Street, located in the Inner Richmond neighborhood, was constructed in 1904 and currently contains two units under the ownership of the Arlene Erlach Revocable Trust. The property has experienced several maintenance and safety issues over recent years, with the most significant concerns emerging between 2018-2021 regarding water drainage and roofing problems.

A series of building violations filed in February 2019 remain active, including issues with stairs requiring repair, roof drainage systems, and the need for proper building permits, with a director hearing scheduled for January 2020. These violations followed multiple complaints about roof debris affecting neighboring properties, water flow issues, and gutter problems between 2018-2021. The building's maintenance history shows some attention to structural elements, including a completed dry rot repair in 1999, various ceiling work in the early 1990s, and kitchen remodeling in 1987.

More recently, in 2019, there was a permitted repair involving replacement of four threads and risers in the stairs, valued at $500, in response to prior violations. The property has also generated multiple parking-related complaints, particularly in 2023, though these are separate from the building's structural and maintenance issues. While there have been some street space and sidewalk repairs addressed in 2007, the most pressing concerns remain focused on the building's roofing and drainage systems, as evidenced by the pattern of complaints and violations over recent years.
