1832 Judah St, San Francisco, CA 94122

The two-story, five-unit multi-family residential building at 1832 Judah St, owned by Arlene Allsman Papeete and built in 1950, has undergone several significant improvements and faced various maintenance issues over the years. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2017 at a cost of $80,000, bringing it into compliance with seismic safety requirements.

Other structural improvements include the replacement of two garage doors in 2010 and an earlier reroofing project from 2002, though that permit ultimately expired. The building experienced a cluster of concerning issues in the early 2000s, including multiple fire safety violations in 2001-2002 related to egress obstruction and roof access door problems, all of which were abated by August 2001.

Additionally, there were several interior maintenance issues documented in 2002, including mold/mildew problems, water damage, and lighting concerns. More recent complaints include a December 2023 report regarding hoarding and alleged pest issues in one unit, as well as multiple reports in late 2024 about sidewalk defects and potential tree damage to the building. The property has maintained active compliance with major safety requirements, as evidenced by the completed soft-story retrofit, though some ongoing maintenance issues persist, particularly regarding tree-related concerns as noted in multiple 311 calls in late 2024.
