88 Crestline Dr, San Francisco, CA 94131

The 14-unit, 2-story apartment building at 88 Crestline Dr, owned by William G Ayoub, has undergone several significant improvements since its construction in 1965, including a completed soft-story retrofit in 2017 (Tier 3), fire alarm replacement in 2016, and multiple unit renovations. Recent records indicate persistent maintenance and safety concerns, with multiple active building violations as of 2021 related to security, interior surfaces, plumbing, electrical systems, and fire safety. A comprehensive complaint filed in June 2021 documented issues including malfunctioning main entrance doors, damaged fixtures, ventilation problems, sliding glass door concerns, egress obstructions, and electrical outlet repairs that remain unresolved.

The building has a history of water-related issues, as evidenced by a sewage backup incident in November 2024 and earlier complaints about mold and structural problems. The property has undergone various unit improvements over the years, including kitchen and bathroom remodels in units 12, 9, and 2, electrical system upgrades, and fire safety improvements. However, there are concerning patterns in the complaint history, particularly regarding maintenance response times and safety code compliance.

Notable historical complaints detail issues such as mold, plumbing concerns, lighting problems, and security violations. The building's compliance history shows several fire code violations between 2006-2016, though many have been resolved through subsequent corrective actions. While recent maintenance permits show ongoing efforts to improve the building's systems, the accumulation of active violations and recent complaints suggests continuing challenges with building maintenance and resident comfort.
