9-11 Sutro Heights Ave, San Francisco, CA 94121

The property at 9-11 Sutro Heights Avenue is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Outer Richmond neighborhood, built in 1947 and currently owned by Wendy W F Kwan and Charles Ho. The building's history reveals significant modifications between 2000-2003, including the unauthorized conversion of ground-floor space into habitable rooms.

In February 2000, construction was permitted for a new bedroom, playroom, and full bathroom on the ground floor at a cost of $13,600, followed by an additional kitchen removal project in November 2002. However, these modifications led to a compliance issue when a complaint was filed in October 2002 regarding the illegal conversion of occupancy from R-3 to R-1 without proper planning approval, specifically citing unauthorized rooms with an installed kitchen.

This violation was eventually abated by August 2003 following the removal of the kitchen stove and associated utilities, with necessary electrical permits completed in June 2003. More recent history shows typical urban living challenges, including several 311 calls regarding local issues such as a blocked sidewalk due to privately maintained vegetation (December 2022, still open), a resolved driveway blocking incident (February 2022), and a parking space blockage by construction equipment (March 2015, determined invalid). The building's past violations and unauthorized modifications were addressed and resolved through proper permits and abatement processes, with the status of the violation records marked as "Closed - Abated." While the property has experienced various neighborhood-related issues common in urban settings, there are no current active violations or safety concerns on record as of October 2023.
