254 Roosevelt Way, San Francisco, CA 94114

The three-unit, two-story multi-family residential building at 254 Roosevelt Way, built in 1904 and currently owned by the Linda Kahn Revocable Living Trust, has undergone numerous renovations and repairs over the past several years, with significant activity concentrated between 2022-2023. Most recently, in November 2023, there is an active permit filed for reroofing work valued at $10,000. In 2023, Unit #2 received substantial updates including replacement of dry-rotted back door and windows, new hardwood floors, appliances, and a wall furnace, while the top floor unit's exterior stairs were replaced with new railings and windows.

These improvements followed earlier 2022-2023 work addressing various maintenance issues including front stairs dry rot repairs, common area improvements, and individual unit renovations. The property has experienced some safety and maintenance concerns, notably in May 2023 when complaints were filed regarding deteriorating second-floor stairs with water standing on landings, which was subsequently addressed in July 2023. Historical records show a 2019 cancelled permit for a major horizontal addition project and a 2010 completion of a unit merger project that combined Units 2 and 3.

The building experienced some code compliance issues in 2002 and 2023 relating to stairs and security requirements, all of which appear to have been resolved, with the most recent violations being abated by September 2023. Additionally, there were some concerns about illegal short-term rentals in 2019 that were resolved. The property's maintenance record shows regular updates to systems including plumbing and electrical, with recent work in 2023 focusing on modernizing Unit 2's infrastructure including gas line upgrades, furnace installation, and electrical systems. The building's documented history reflects ongoing maintenance and upgrading of building systems, with particular attention to addressing safety concerns as they arise.
