998 Noe St, San Francisco, CA 94114

The two-unit, one-story multi-family residential building at 998 Noe St in Noe Valley, owned by Maria Del Socorro Carcamo, has a history dating back to 1900. The property has faced significant maintenance challenges since July 2016, when multiple violations were documented including issues with deck repairs, siding weatherproofing, exterior painting, and lead paint concerns, particularly on the south side of the building where flaking paint posed potential health risks to nearby children.

While some remediation efforts occurred in 2016 with deck repairs costing $2,000 to address dry rot on the second story, as of August 2019, these violations remained active despite the issuance of final warning letters. A prior incident in 2010 involved unauthorized construction and electrical work at the property, though this complaint was quickly resolved. Recent municipal records from 2023-2024 show ongoing maintenance needs in the surrounding area, particularly related to tree management and sidewalk conditions, including multiple reports of lifted sidewalk sections due to tree roots.

While these external issues do not directly impact the building's habitability, they indicate ongoing environmental maintenance concerns in the vicinity. The building received a significant electrical upgrade in 2008, with service increased from 60 to 200 amps in the basement, demonstrating some infrastructure improvements over the years. The persistence of multiple active housing violations since 2016 suggests a pattern of deferred maintenance, particularly regarding exterior upkeep and safety compliance.
