1679-1681 Oakdale Ave, San Francisco, CA 94124

The property at 1679-1681 Oakdale Avenue is a one-story multi-family residential building with two units, located in San Francisco's Bayview neighborhood. Built in 1900 and owned by Kenneth W. Brown Sr., this building has undergone several significant improvements over the past decade.

The most recent major maintenance was completed in July 2024 with the replacement of the house trap. Between 2014 and 2018, substantial window upgrades were performed, including the replacement of 10 street-facing windows with aluminum-clad wood windows ($11,695) and three non-visible windows with vinyl frames ($2,410). The building also received various exterior improvements, such as vinyl siding installation on the back walls in 2014 ($12,544), and in 2014, a solar PV system was installed consisting of 15 roof-mounted modules with a total rating of 3.75 kW. The property has experienced some maintenance and infrastructure issues over the past few years, including a developing sinkhole investigation in 2018 that suggested a possible side sewer issue.

There are currently three open 311 calls that warrant attention: a curb defect reported in October 2024 and tree root issues damaging the sidewalk reported in March 2022. Between 2021 and 2024, there have been several parking-related incidents near the property, including sidewalk parking and driveway blocking, though these are external issues not directly related to the building's condition. The building's plumbing system has seen regular updates, with the most recent work being the house trap replacement in 2024, while the electrical system received improvements including a solar installation in 2014 and underground service conduit installation in 2006. The property has generally been well-maintained, with most permits marked as complete, though there are a few expired permits from the 1990s related to window installations.
