Augrented Insights Report

The three-unit multi-family residential building at 40-42 Norton Street in Mission Terrace, owned by Yee Ken Han, is a two-story flats & duplex structure dating back to 1907. The property has experienced recurring maintenance and habitability issues, with the most recent tenant complaint in 2024 regarding bathroom plumbing problems, an inoperable refrigerator, and ongoing pest control needs.

In 2017, the building faced multiple violations including mold/mildew on interior surfaces, smoke detector issues, stairs and handrail repairs, and a cockroach infestation, all of which were abated by October 2017. The building has undergone several permitted improvements, including rear yard storage legalization attempts in 2017, rear stairway replacement for second exit access in 2000, and the addition of a bar sink in 2001.

More recent infrastructure concerns include several open requests for tree maintenance and sidewalk defects reported in 2023-2024, indicating possible ongoing property maintenance challenges. The building's history shows a pattern of both structural and maintenance issues that have required intervention from various city departments, including plumbing, housing inspection, and street services.
