812-816 Church St, San Francisco, CA 94114

The property at 812-816 Church Street is a four-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in the Eureka Valley/Dolores Heights neighborhood. Built in 1917 and currently owned by Paul H & Carmine L Jensen F, this apartment building has undergone several significant structural and safety improvements in recent years. Most notably, in 2017, comprehensive voluntary structural upgrades were implemented to enhance tenant safety, including improvements to unreinforced masonry front stairs, rear tall posts, and the addition of new concrete grade beams and diagonal rods, all at a cost of $30,000.

Another major 2017 project involved strengthening the garage basement perimeter walls through the installation of epoxy anchor bolts and post/beam/footing connection improvements, totaling $25,000. The building's historical maintenance record reveals a series of improvements and repairs, including window replacement in 2012 (replacing five wood windows with vinyl ones), reroofing in 2006, and the replacement of a rotted post and footing in 2002. Noteworthy violations were documented in 2011, including issues with fire proofing, combustible storage, fire extinguisher maintenance, and plumbing concerns, though these were all properly abated by November 2011.

Earlier violations from 2001 regarding stair repairs were also resolved. The property has been subject to regular routine apartment house inspections, and while there are some historical complaints and 311 calls related to the property (mostly concerning parking and street cleaning issues), no recent violations or complaints have been filed against the building since 2011. The most recent interaction with city services was a parking enforcement request in May 2021.
