2038-2042 Balboa St, San Francisco, CA 94121

The property at 2038-2042 Balboa Street is a two-story, four-unit multi-family residential building with street-level commercial space, constructed in 1918 and currently owned by Kmgb Llc. The building has undergone significant infrastructure improvements in recent years, including a complete re-roofing project in 2015 costing approximately $16,380, and a major electrical upgrade in July 2015 that involved replacing the 400-amp main service and installing new meters.

Earlier renovations from 2012-2014 included substantial plumbing and electrical work, such as bathroom and kitchen remodels, bathroom fixture installations, and electrical rewiring of units with new lighting, switch, and outlet installations. Multiple permit revisions were initiated in 2014 regarding window sizes and structural details, though these were ultimately withdrawn. The building has had recent 311 calls primarily related to parking issues, particularly in 2024, with several reports of illegal parking and sidewalk obstruction, though responding officers were generally unable to locate the reported violations.

There are also some ongoing municipal matters, including an overgrown tree blocking signs (opened in October 2024) and a defaced sign (opened July 2024). A flooding incident on the street was reported in July 2024 and accepted by the Public Utilities Commission. The property previously underwent a planning process to convert an existing office space into a residential unit in the rear structure, seeking to increase the total units to three, though the current status of this conversion is not clearly listed in available records.
