1738-1740 Oakdale Ave, San Francisco, CA 94124

The two-unit residential building at 1738-1740 Oakdale Ave in the Bayview neighborhood is a 1-story structure built in 1965, currently owned by Harriet L. Rougeau.

The building has undergone several significant improvements over the past two decades, including a comprehensive electrical system upgrade from an overhead to an underground service connection completed in 2008, and a roof replacement in 2015 costing $5,800. In 2015, the property underwent substantial safety improvements with the replacement of rear stairs that exceeded 50% replacement, which necessitated the installation of a second means of egress - a project properly permitted and executed in accordance with safety requirements. The building's maintenance history shows generally responsible upkeep, though there was one instance of unauthorized work noted in 2010 regarding kitchen remodeling without the proper plumbing permits, which was subsequently addressed.

More recently, between October 2024 and January 2025, there have been multiple reports of debris and abandoned furniture in the vicinity of the property, including instances of homeless encampments, though these issues appear to be external to the building itself and have been generally addressed by city services. An open case regarding a curb defect was recorded in November 2024, which is still pending resolution as of the most recent data. The building has no recorded violations in the past two years, and all major systems have been updated to current standards, though the property has experienced recurring issues with street cleanliness in its immediate surroundings, particularly in late 2024.
