2533 Balboa St, San Francisco, CA 94121

The property at 2533 Balboa Street is a one-story multi-family residential building with three units, constructed in 1919, currently owned by Chris Dedes. The building's history has been marked by several significant changes and recent developments. Most notably, in 2023, there was a front facade modification to the ground floor, including changes to the entrance and windows ($7,500 cost), and the electrical system was upgraded with the replacement of three main panels in September 2023.

Earlier in 2023, important administrative actions were taken to clarify the building's use: the abandonment of a non-conforming commercial unit and its reversion to residential storage use, followed by a determination of the building as a two-story two-family dwelling with store. The building has a documented history of unauthorized use as residential space, with multiple complaints between 2013 and 2018 regarding people living in the storefront and performing unpermitted modifications. These complaints, while not currently active, indicate past regulatory challenges.

The property has experienced several maintenance issues in recent years, including minor flooding in 2018 and multiple reports of garbage and cleaning needs around the property. Recent activity includes two parking-related complaints in 2024, though these were invalid due to incomplete reporting information. The building's current status is characterized by recent efforts to regularize its residential use and modernize its facilities, with 2023 being a particularly active year for improvements and administrative changes.
