942-946 York St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The three-unit, three-story TIC building at 942-946 York Street in the Inner Mission, owned by Karen Andersen, was constructed in 1900 and has undergone several significant improvements in recent years. Most notably, in 2022-2023, the building received a comprehensive set of upgrades including the replacement of five street-facing windows (completed in 2022 at a cost of $14,000) and substantial electrical improvements with a 200-amp service upgrade (January 2023). The property has seen regular maintenance and modernization efforts, with a kitchen remodel completed in 2021 ($95,000) that included new exhaust, window replacements, millwork, and associated electrical work.

Additional improvements include the installation of mini-split systems for heating and cooling in 2022 and 2023. The building's maintenance history shows attention to structural integrity and safety, with earlier records from 1991 indicating foundation work, repairs to mudsills and joists, and attention to rear stairs. While there were multiple building violations noted during a 2003 routine inspection, these were all abated by December 2003 and primarily related to safety features such as handrails, fire extinguishers, light switches, and security requirements.

A tenant buyout occurred in January 2017 for $70,000, involving two tenants of 946 York Street. Recent maintenance activity has focused on modernizing systems and maintaining historic features, as evidenced by the carefully controlled window replacement project which required special approval due to the building's historical status. The building has been regularly maintained with all major historical violations resolved, and recent improvements indicate ongoing investment in the property's infrastructure and systems. The surrounding area has experienced typical urban issues as documented in 311 calls, primarily related to street cleaning and parking enforcement, though these are external to the building itself.
