1896-1898 Palou Ave, San Francisco, CA 94124

The 3-unit residential building at 1896-1898 Palou Ave in Silver Terrace, owned by Anthony H Prejean, is a single-story apartment structure built in 1912. The property has undergone several significant maintenance and upgrade projects over the years, including a reroofing project completed in 2005 at a cost of $9,900, aluminum window installation in 1990, electrical upgrades in 2006 involving new outlets, switches, and circuits (though this permit has since expired), and a water heater replacement in 2009.

The building experienced serious infrastructure issues in the early 2000s, with multiple complaints filed between 2000-2001 regarding plumbing problems, including flooding, sewage leaks, and water damage, which necessitated numerous building violations that were eventually abated in August 2009. These violations encompassed problems with electrical outlets, smoke detectors, interior surfaces, mold/mildew, windows, and plumbing fixtures.

The most recent building-related issues have been primarily external, with multiple 311 calls in late 2024 and early 2025 reporting garbage and debris on the property, including furniture and yard waste, though these were primarily sidewalk-related matters. There's currently one open issue from December 2024 regarding a sidewalk defect.
