704 Castro St, San Francisco, CA 94114

704 Castro Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1900, currently owned by Aoyagi Shota & Lee Jung Eun. The property has undergone several significant renovations over the years, with the most substantial being a proposed expansion and full interior remodel as of February 2019, which aims to transform the upper unit from a 2-bedroom/1-bath to a 3-bedroom/2.5-bath configuration, and to remodel both units' kitchens and bathrooms.

This project, documented in the planning records, would also include vertical and horizontal additions to the building's front and rear sections. Prior improvements include a complete kitchen and bath upgrade in 2015 (including plumbing and electrical work), front stair repairs in 2015, and various renovations in the 1990s and 1980s including kitchen and bathroom updates, new furnace installation, and termite repairs.

The building's maintenance and minor infractions record shows regular upkeep of the property, though there have been recurrent issues with illegal parking in the vicinity, with multiple citations issued between 2020 and 2023. The property has experienced occasional maintenance issues requiring attention, such as defaced signs (2023), illegal postings (2021), and hazardous materials on the street (2021), all of which were resolved. The 2019 proposed expansion project is the most significant recent development, marking a substantial investment in improving the property's residential units, though as of the latest available data, this permit is still listed as "filed." The building's historical records show consistent maintenance and upgrades over the decades, with no tenant buyouts recorded at this address.
