270-272 Castro St, San Francisco, CA 94114
The four-story, two-unit residential building at 270-272 Castro Street in Corona Heights, owned by Lerner Yishai and constructed in 1928, has undergone several significant renovation projects and maintenance works over the past few years. Most notably, in 2019, there were ambitious plans for a substantial expansion of the upper unit, including a full interior remodel and expansion from 2 beds/1.5 baths to 4 beds/3.5 baths, though these permits were ultimately cancelled.
The building has seen consistent updates to its infrastructure, including a complete HVAC system overhaul in 2021 with furnace replacements in both the basement and attic, and comprehensive plumbing upgrades in early 2019 that included new fixtures across multiple bathrooms and kitchens, water heaters, and a rainwater system. Electrical improvements were also made with a 200-amp underground service upgrade in 2018. Recent maintenance records show some ongoing infrastructure challenges, including a notable sewer issue in December 2022 and a tree root problem affecting the sidewalk reported in January 2022.
The property has experienced multiple 311 calls in 2023, primarily related to street-level issues including graffiti, illegal parking, and general cleaning needs, though none indicate serious structural or safety concerns. Historical records show earlier maintenance including reroofing in 1993 and some street space work in 2005. While there have been various permit applications and revisions throughout the years, most significant renovation plans have either been completed or officially closed, with no records of tenant buyouts or planning code complaints associated with the property.
