53 Woodward St, San Francisco, CA 94103

The 2-story, 3-unit multi-family residential building at 53 Woodward Street in the Inner Mission, currently owned by the Cajilig Family Trust, has undergone several significant events since its construction in 1968. Of particular note was a fire incident in 2017 that caused substantial damage to the ground floor garage, necessitating a $29,000 repair project that included electrical and plumbing work, window replacement, and new electrical panels.

The building has since received regular maintenance and upgrades, including electrical rewiring of the garage, electrical room, and laundry room in 2019, installation of new composite siding in July 2024, and various compliance-related improvements. The property has a documented history of building maintenance and compliance issues, particularly in 2003-2004 when multiple violations were recorded, including problems with heating units, smoke detectors, paint conditions, and unauthorized modifications in unit #3. All of these violations appear to have been abated by January 2004.

Subsequent inspections in 2008 and 2011 were conducted, with the latter being a health and safety inspection. Parking-related issues around the property have been common, with multiple citations issued between 2022 and 2024 for various violations including driveway blocking and sidewalk parking. Recent maintenance of the property seems to be more proactive, with the most recent siding installation and prompt responses to various service requests, including street cleaning and garbage removal in 2024.
