1451 Willard St, San Francisco, CA 94117

The property at 1451 Willard Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1908, currently owned by the Caroline Kraus Survivors Trust. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the years, with the most recent being a complete reroofing project in March 2024 costing $15,900.

This follows a pattern of proactive maintenance, including a hand-dug sewer replacement in 2016 and previous repairs such as dry rot remediation of the rear deck and French doors in 2001, and construction of storage space at the rear of the garage in 2007. Notably, there have been some compliance issues in the building's history, including a complaint in 2012 regarding improper paint scrapping containment, and two fire complaints in April 2019 related to combustible materials and operating without a permit. The property has experienced numerous parking-related issues in recent months, particularly between January and August 2024, with multiple instances of vehicles blocking driveways, resulting in several citations being issued.

There is also an open sidewalk defect issue reported in May 2024 concerning a lifted sidewalk. Looking at the building's overall history, past permits show an attempt in 1992 to construct a horizontal addition, though this permit expired. The property has demonstrated regular maintenance through various permitted work, and while there have been some compliance issues, many historical complaints were addressed promptly and marked as not active within a short timeframe.
