1180 Clayton St, San Francisco, CA 94117

The four-unit multi-family residential building at 1180 Clayton Street in the Buena Vista Park neighborhood, owned by James P. Zerga, has a documented history dating back to its 1928 construction. The most pressing current issue is an active tenant complaint from March 2024 regarding water damage and security concerns, including a flooding incident reportedly caused by inadequate door weatherproofing that the landlord allegedly did not properly address.

This building has undergone several significant improvements, including the installation of a fire sprinkler system in 2000 (cost: $11,000), structural repairs to address dry rot, and a horizontal addition completed in 1999 valued at $300,000. The property has experienced some maintenance challenges, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls in late 2024, including reports of sewage issues from a side sewer vent, graffiti, and various cleaning matters. The building's inspection record shows regular routine inspections by Housing Inspection Services between 1996 and 2009, though most recent complaints and issues fall outside this regular schedule.

Historical permits indicate various improvements over the years, such as reroofing in 1989 and structural work in 2000. Recent months have seen multiple reports of graffiti and debris issues around the property, as well as sewer-related concerns in December 2024. While no serious fire incidents are on record, there were two service calls recorded by the fire department with no civilian injuries reported. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of addressing major structural and safety improvements, while recent tenant complaints suggest ongoing challenges with maintenance response times and water-related issues.
