1321-1323 Taraval St, San Francisco, CA 94116

This two-story, mixed-use building located at 1321-1323 Taraval Street in the Parkside neighborhood was constructed in 1939 and contains three residential units plus commercial space. The property, currently owned by Andrew Lee, is showing significant age-related maintenance needs. Historical records indicate various maintenance work, including stucco repairs and wood replacement in 1997, and awning installation in 1999, though the awning permit has expired.

More recently, in 2006, there was work attempted for underground electrical service conversion, but this permit also expired. The building has experienced numerous safety-related incidents over the years. From 2020 to 2021, there was a fire complaint regarding refused hood and duct service, though ultimately determined to have no merit. There have been multiple false alarm incidents recorded by the fire department, including smoke detector activations, carbon monoxide detector activations, and alarm system malfunctions, none resulting in injuries or actual fires.

A concerning active building complaint from 1997 remains unresolved, regarding a broken and dry-rotted window in the commercial beauty salon portion of the building. The property has faced considerable challenges with street-level maintenance in recent months, with multiple 311 calls between October 2024 and January 2025 reporting various issues such as abandoned furniture, overflowing garbage cans, and human waste on the street. There have been instances of graffiti on and near the property, with the most recent cases reported in December 2024 and January 2025. While these recent street cleanliness issues do not directly reflect on the building's internal conditions, they may impact resident quality of life in the immediate vicinity.
