1185-1187 Valencia St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The two-unit residential building at 1185-1187 Valencia Street in the Inner Mission, a 2-story flats and duplex structure built in 1900, has undergone several significant renovations and faced some recent maintenance challenges. The most substantial modification occurred in 2004 when the building was raised approximately 22 inches to accommodate a new two-car garage and additional living space, costing $110,000. In 2006, substantial interior work was completed, including repairs to water-damaged kitchens and bathrooms in both units, electrical system upgrades including rewiring of multiple rooms and installation of a new service panel, and the addition of a garage door opener.

More recently, in November 2023, there was a complaint filed regarding unauthorized electrical work involving line voltage installation for a split unit, and there is currently an open issue from December 2023 concerning a tree damaging property. The property has experienced recurrent issues with debris on the street, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls, and there have been several reports of parking violations near the property, though these are not directly related to the building's condition. The historical record reveals some infrastructure improvements and maintenance work, including three street space permits issued in 2003, though a compliance issue from 1984 (complaint number D20460) was listed as expired.

The building's unit configuration includes a ground floor unit and spaces that have been modified over time, including a garage area. While the property has undergone significant renovations to modernize its systems and maintain habitability, the recent complaints regarding unauthorized electrical work and ongoing maintenance issues suggest that some aspects of building upkeep may require closer attention. The multiple reports of waste and debris near the property indicate persistent challenges with the immediate surroundings, though many of these issues have been resolved through city cleanup services.
