2014 19th St, San Francisco, CA 94107

The three-unit, three-story multi-family residential building at 2014 19th Street in Potrero Hill, owned by Travis Allen, has undergone several significant changes and faced various compliance issues since its 1904 construction. Most recently, in early 2024, two tenant buyouts were recorded, with payments of $50,000 and $90,000 respectively.

There have been ongoing concerns about unpermitted work and compliance, including a 2019 complaint about unauthorized construction of a roof deck on the slanted rear side, which is noted as "Active." This pattern of unpermitted modifications dates back to the 1980s, when multiple attempts to address violations regarding wood decks were documented, with some permits, such as for deck removal, being completed successfully. Recent maintenance activities include a 2019 reroofing project costing $14,150 and repairs to the front stairwell handrail. The building has experienced various urban challenges typical of its location, as evidenced by numerous 311 calls between 2022 and 2024, primarily related to parking violations and street cleaning issues.

While the property has had several variance requests regarding front setback and garage modifications, most of these were either disapproved or withdrawn. The most recent tenant buyouts in 2024 suggest a significant change in occupancy status, following a 2012 complaint about failure to comply with vacant building ordinances that was promptly resolved. The building's permit and complaint history indicates a recurring pattern of unresolved compliance issues, particularly regarding deck modifications and unauthorized construction, despite some successful maintenance and repair work.
