83 States St, San Francisco, CA 94114

The two-unit residential building at 83 States Street in Corona Heights, owned by Pamela Joyce Mcgarry, is a two-story flats and duplex structure dating back to 1925. The property has experienced several significant maintenance and compliance issues over the past two decades, most notably a comprehensive set of problems documented in 2022 that included exposed wiring, plumbing leaks, mold issues, and concerns about a potentially unsafe back deck, which were addressed through the repair of handrails and other compliance work.

In 2021, the building underwent important infrastructure work with a sewer and house trap replacement. The property has a history of unauthorized modifications, including an illegal third unit installation in 2002 that was ultimately abated, and multiple permit activities such as re-roofing in 2016 and repairs to a shaking handrail in 2022, the latter being a direct response to a housing violation.

The building's maintenance history also includes electrical rewiring work in 2002 and general upkeep of building systems, though some issues remain unresolved, such as a tree root-related sewer problem reported in 2021. A tenant buyout occurred in 2015 for $15,000 involving one tenant, suggesting some turnover in occupancy. While many violations have been addressed through proper permitting and repairs, the property has experienced recurring maintenance issues that suggest ongoing attention to building systems and safety features is necessary.
