642-648 Cabrillo St, San Francisco, CA 94118

The property at 642-648 Cabrillo St is a two-story, four-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1921, currently owned by Peter H Hong Trust. The most significant recent event was an emergency incident in May 2024 when a car crashed into the building's southwest corner, causing structural damage, severing the main water line, and rendering the lower unit uninhabitable until repairs are completed. In response to this incident, a building permit was issued in September 2024 for repairing walls, windows, and doors on the main level, bedroom, and bathroom, with an estimated cost of $15,000.

The building has undergone several maintenance projects over the years, including reroofing work in 2009 (completed) and in 1996 (expired). A notable historical event occurred in 1990 when an illegal unit was removed along with its sink, stove, and shower fixtures. The building has experienced various compliance issues, including a 2000 violation requiring the removal of combustible storage or installation of fire sprinklers, and a 2009 incident involving improper lead paint removal practices during work.

While these violations were ultimately resolved, they indicate past concerns regarding building maintenance and safety protocols. Recent 311 calls have primarily related to street-level issues such as garbage, debris, and sidewalk blocking, with one unresolved issue regarding a blocked sidewalk from July 2024. The property has undergone several routine housing inspections over the years, with all cases marked as resolved. The recent planning records show current work authorized to repair and replace exterior wall, door, and window features on the north facade following the 2024 vehicle collision.
