1509-1511 Noriega St, San Francisco, CA 94122

The two-unit residential building at 1509-1511 Noriega Street in the Central Sunset neighborhood, owned by Nicholas P & Rhian Alvarado, was constructed in 1953 and has undergone several significant improvements over its lifetime. The most substantial recent renovation occurred in 2020, comprising approximately $150,000 in upgrades to both units including bathroom remodels, complete rewiring with electrical service upgrades, kitchen improvements, new heating systems, and water heater installations. This comprehensive update was supported by corresponding plumbing and electrical permits that documented the installation of new HVAC systems, ductwork, and water-related infrastructure throughout both units.

Prior to this, the building received energy-efficient window replacements in 2012, with ten upgraded bronze aluminum windows installed across both units. Additional historical maintenance includes reroofing work completed in 2007 and stair replacement at the side of the house in 1991. The property has experienced numerous driveway parking enforcement issues in 2024, with eight reported incidents of vehicles blocking driveways between January and August 2024, though in most cases, officers were unable to locate the offending vehicles.

There has also been one report of graffiti on the sidewalk and a sidewalk defect complaint in 2024, though the sidewalk issue was determined not to be egregious under city rules. The building's maintenance record suggests regular upkeep, with major systems having been modernized in the 2020 renovations, though the recent parking enforcement issues indicate ongoing challenges with driveway access. The property appears to be compliant with local building codes, as evidenced by the proper permits and inspections associated with major work, particularly the extensive 2020 renovation project.
