2080 Bryant St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The two-unit residential building at 2080 Bryant Street, owned by Myrna Garcia and constructed in 1907, has undergone several significant renovations and faced multiple safety compliance issues over the years. Most notably, in 2023 and 2024, the property experienced recurring issues with the rear stairway, including unauthorized replacement work that led to two Notice of Violations (NOVs) and a required compliance permit in September 2023 costing $2,000. The building has a documented history of fire safety concerns, especially in 2024, with multiple fire code violations issued between February and October, including problems with alarm systems and hazardous materials.

A comprehensive renovation was completed in 2008-2009, which included electrical rewiring, kitchen and bathroom remodels on the first floor, and the installation of new heating systems, totaling approximately $25,000. More recent infrastructure improvements included a sewer line replacement in 2019. The property has experienced periodic maintenance and compliance issues, with the most pressing concerns being the recent fire safety violations and stairway compliance matters.

It has a history of fire alarm activations, though these have generally been due to malfunctions or false alarms rather than actual fires, with only one documented cooking fire incident. Recent 311 calls from late 2024 indicate ongoing neighborhood issues near the property, including noise and cleanliness concerns, though these are more reflective of street conditions rather than building-specific problems. The building's permit history shows a pattern of required corrective actions to address unauthorized work, particularly regarding the stairway replacements in both 2017 and 2023, suggesting ongoing challenges with proper permit compliance and construction oversight.
