1447-1449 Judah St, San Francisco, CA 94122

The property at 1447-1449 Judah Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Central Sunset neighborhood, constructed in 1951 and currently owned by Alex Cheng and Joanne Li. The building's permit history shows several significant improvements, with the most recent being a complete window replacement project in 2022 costing nearly $40,000, which upgraded six street-visible windows from aluminum to wood composite with improved energy efficiency.

Prior renovations include ground floor alterations completed in 2002 to add bedrooms, a family room, and bathroom facilities, along with associated electrical work. Historical maintenance records indicate reroofing work was performed in 1990 (with a second roofing permit from 1998 showing as expired), and wall repairs for dry rot were completed in 1990 as well. The building experienced a notable violation incident in 2004 when unauthorized modifications were reported, including the installation of an unpermitted window on the Judah Street side, construction of an unauthorized in-law apartment at ground level, and conversion of a living room into a bedroom.

These violations were officially documented through multiple Notices of Violation (NOV) but were subsequently abated by August 2004, with the necessary permits obtained for the unauthorized modifications. More recently, from 2023 to 2024, there have been multiple reports of graffiti affecting the property, particularly on AT&T-related infrastructure, though most instances were categorized as "not offensive" and are either resolved or currently open. The building's recent maintenance record suggests active upkeep by the owners, with the 2022 window replacement project representing a significant investment in building improvements and energy efficiency.
