270-272 Roosevelt Way, San Francisco, CA 94114

The two-unit residential building at 270-272 Roosevelt Way, owned by Roxanne Gould, is a two-story flats/duplex structure built in 1927 in the Buena Vista Park neighborhood. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the past two decades, with the most recent major work occurring in 2017 following multiple housing code violations. In 2017, the property received multiple notices of violation (NOV) for various safety and maintenance issues, including problems with fire safety, doors, lighting, security bars, guardrails, dryer ventilation, and wooden steps, as well as water heater installation non-compliance.

All these violations were addressed through permits completed between October and November 2017, which included the installation of a dryer vent, replacement of windows and doors, installation of handrails, and updates to meet current safety standards. The building also underwent significant improvements in 2013 with kitchen remodeling work and electrical/plumbing updates valued at $15,000. More recent history shows some ongoing infrastructure concerns surrounding the property, with multiple 311 calls in 2023-2024 regarding tree root damage to the sidewalk, and a sidewalk defect reported in September 2017 that was subsequently resolved.

Earlier improvements included a furnace replacement in 2015, a window upgrade to fire-rated glass in 2011, and multiple other building enhancements between 2011 and 2017. The property had previous issues with illegal property line windows in 2009, which were resolved by 2013. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of addressing code violations and making regular improvements, though there have been periods of multiple violations requiring remediation.
