66-68 Alvarado St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The 2-story multi-family residential building at 66-68 Alvarado Street in Noe Valley, owned by Kitmitto Sami, is a 4-unit structure built in 1907 with a mixed history of maintenance and improvements. Most recently, in 2021, the building underwent significant infrastructure upgrades including the installation of a 7.79 kW solar PV system, with earlier electrical improvements in 2014-2015 establishing a new 225-amp service and EV charging infrastructure.

The building has seen regular maintenance of essential systems, with three roofing projects documented between 1988 and 2021, and major structural work completed in 2010 that included foundation reinforcement, beam replacement, and the installation of shear walls in the basement. The property has had some concerning incidents, though none of the violations or complaints are currently active. In 2011, there was a citation related to inadequate lead paint containment during renovation work, which was resolved within weeks, and there was a brief period of property dilapidation noted in 2002 that was promptly addressed.

The building has undergone various interior improvements over the years, including kitchen remodels in 2001 and 2007, and extensive electrical upgrades in 2010 that included multiple new circuits and safety features. Two external incidents were recorded: minor street flooding in 2015 that was promptly addressed, and a smoke/odor removal incident with no civilian injuries. All known building permits have been properly closed out, with the most significant recent work being the complete electrical and solar upgrades in 2021.
