1662-1664 Kirkwood Ave, San Francisco, CA 94124

The two-unit building at 1662-1664 Kirkwood Ave, located in the Bayview neighborhood, was constructed in 1916 and is currently owned by Shane J. O'Connor and Kath Berg. The property has experienced multiple maintenance and compliance issues over the years, with the most recent tenant complaints emerging in early 2024.

Current concerns include non-functioning windows, ventilation problems, a dangerous stairway, bathroom drainage issues, and problems with the front and rear doors. The building's history reveals recurring maintenance problems, including an active violation from 2008 regarding possible illegal unit conversion of the ground level back portion with separate entrance, unauthorized alterations including unapproved plumbing and gas lines, and safety concerns about fire resistance materials and smoke detectors. The building has undergone some maintenance work, including a roof replacement in 2015, and several violations from 2016 were addressed within a month, including repairs to doors, floors, ceilings, and plumbing issues.

Notable historical violations include a 2011 complaint regarding non-compliance with the First Notice of Violation and the Vacant or Abandoned Building Ordinance, though these were marked as active. The property has also generated multiple 311 calls in 2024, primarily related to garbage and debris issues, parking violations, and general maintenance concerns. A 2017 fire complaint regarding illegal occupancy was investigated but found to have no merit. While many past violations have been resolved, the recurring nature of the complaints and the number of active violations suggest ongoing maintenance and compliance challenges at this property.
