1308-1310 18th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94122

The three-story, four-unit multi-family residential building at 1308-1310 18th Avenue in the Inner Sunset, owned by Elaine K Archbold since 2002, has undergone several significant renovations and faced some notable issues in recent years. Most recently, in early 2023, there was a complaint about unpermitted renovation work throughout the building that was filed with the Building Inspection Division, though building permits were subsequently issued for partition wall modifications and a gas line pressure test in June 2023.

During 2022, the property underwent substantial improvements, including kitchen and bathroom remodels in multiple units (completed at a cost of $44,000), electrical system upgrades, and commercial office rewiring with new LED lighting and heater installations. The building's history includes some concerning events, particularly regarding building safety and occupancy. A complaint from January 2023 reported a vacant barbershop, and there were multiple 311 calls in late 2024 related to garbage and debris issues in the vicinity of the building.

Notably, there were two significant withdrawal or expired permits from the late 1980s-1990s that could indicate previous attempts to modify the building's use or layout, though their specific impacts are unclear given their age. The property has also required some administrative adjustments, such as the address modification work completed in 2019 to clarify its location information across multiple addresses. The building's systems have been receiving attention, with recent permits showing work on electrical systems, plumbing fixtures, and heating elements to maintain and upgrade the building's infrastructure.
