4543 Lincoln Way, San Francisco, CA 94122

The 4-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 4543 Lincoln Way in the Outer Sunset neighborhood, owned by Chan Living Trust, has undergone significant recent renovations, with three of four units receiving comprehensive kitchen and bathroom updates between 2021 and 2024. Unit 4 was remodeled in 2021, Unit 3 underwent work in late 2023 (with a subsequent complaint about unauthorized work), and Unit 2 is currently permitted for remodeling as of October 2024. The building has a history of maintenance and safety improvements, including a complete reroof in 1994, window replacements in 1995, and various fire safety upgrades.

Notably, there was a cluster of fire safety violations in October 2001 that were promptly addressed by November 2001, including issues with combustible storage, egress obstructions, and electrical wiring. A minor fire exit violation was also recorded in 2016 but was abated within a month. Recent 311 calls primarily relate to external issues near the property, including multiple reports of garbage and debris between April and September 2024, while there was one parking enforcement call in April 2024 that resulted in a citation.

The most recent building inspection records show periodic routine safety inspections in 2001, 2009, and 2018, suggesting regular oversight of the property. The building's age (built in 1976) and the nature of the recent renovations indicate ongoing maintenance and modernization efforts, though the recent unauthorized work in Unit 3 highlights the need for proper permitting procedures. The property has maintained compliance with safety requirements since addressing the 2001 violations, with no active fire or building code violations as of the latest records.
