1523 7th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94122

1523 7th Avenue is a two-story, 4-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1975 and currently owned by 1523 7th Avenue LLC. The property underwent significant renovations in 2018, including complete remodels of units #1, #2, and #4 featuring new kitchens (10'x10') and bathrooms (5'x5'), with associated plumbing and electrical work totaling over $104,000. The building has experienced several maintenance and safety-related issues in recent years, most notably a garage leak reported in late 2022-2023 that raised concerns about mold and water damage.

The building underwent a routine inspection in late 2018 that revealed multiple violations requiring attention, including issues with fire safety systems, security features, and sanitation, though these violations were subsequently abated by December 2018. Recent complaints indicate ongoing maintenance concerns, including a cracked skylight and circuit breaker issues reported in August 2023. Historical records show recurring issues with building systems and maintenance, including security concerns (e.g., door locks, fire escape ladders), lighting problems, and waste management challenges.

The property has been subject to various 311 calls in 2024 regarding sidewalk conditions and debris, suggesting ongoing environmental maintenance challenges. Of note, there was an investigation into short-term rental violations associated with the property, though this appears to have been resolved. The building's maintenance history shows patterns of addressing violations, though some recurring issues suggest ongoing enforcement of building systems and infrastructure remains a concern.
