847-849 47th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94121

The two-unit residential building at 847-849 47th Avenue in the Outer Richmond, owned by Amar Marina, has undergone several significant improvements since its construction in 1926. The property has seen consistent maintenance and upgrades over the years, including a reroofing project in 2008 (cost: $7,000), multiple interior renovations in 2004-2005 (totaling approximately $29,000) involving kitchen cabinets, bathroom fixtures, window replacements, and electrical upgrades.

A horizontal addition was completed in 1995, and in 2003-2004, permits were obtained for various improvements, including a master bathroom conversion and garage door widening. The building has experienced some concerning incidents in recent years, particularly in 2017 when there were fire complaints regarding hoarding and blocked exits, though these were referred to the Department of Building Inspection and subsequently closed.

More recently, there has been an ongoing issue with driveway access, as evidenced by multiple parking enforcement calls between 2023-2025, with several citations issued for vehicles blocking the driveway, though some complaints could not be validated or resulted in officers being unable to locate the offending vehicles. A tree maintenance issue was reported in June 2023, requiring pruning work that falls under the property owner's responsibility. The building's parking and access challenges appear to be the most persistent issue currently affecting the property, with notable patterns of blockage occurring regularly over the past two years.
