1326-1328 Natoma St, San Francisco, CA 94103

The two-unit residential building at 1326-1328 Natoma St in the Inner Mission, owned by Hector Benjamin Mero, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1906. The property has experienced several significant incidents, most notably a fire in 2007 that resulted in extensive damage and required substantial repairs under permit #200810234889, which included window replacements, seismic retrofitting, plumbing and electrical upgrades, and sheetrock replacement, with an estimated cost of $150,000.

The building underwent comprehensive renovations between 2008-2012, including electrical panel upgrades, plumbing system improvements, and the installation of new utilities. The property has a history of permit compliance issues, with multiple violations documented between 2007-2010 regarding expired permits, unpermitted work, and unauthorized unit modifications, particularly concerning an alleged illegal basement unit. Several permits related to the 2008 reconstruction efforts expired without final inspections, leading to additional code enforcement actions.

While most of these issues were ultimately resolved by 2012, they indicate a period of significant permitting and compliance challenges. More recently, there have been several street-related service requests (primarily involving human/animal waste) along with a few parking enforcement calls near the property between 2019-2023. The building's infrastructure improvements during the 2008-2012 period included reroofing work (completed in 2009 for $3,500), installation of a tankless water heater, and various plumbing and electrical upgrades, suggesting efforts to modernize and maintain the property following the 2007 fire incident.
