1542 Shafter Ave, San Francisco, CA 94124
The property at 1542 Shafter Avenue is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Bayview neighborhood. Constructed in 1910 and categorized as a Flats & Duplex building, it is currently owned by the Gloria Goodall Revocable Trust. The building's documented history shows relatively few major structural modifications, with a reroofing project completed in 2000 for $5,400, though this permit appears to have expired.
A significant building complaint was filed in August 2021 regarding illegal units and plumbing issues, which currently shows as not active in the Housing Inspection Services system. Recent events from 2024 present some concerns about the property's immediate environment, particularly regarding parking violations and street maintenance issues. There have been multiple parking enforcement calls related to double parking, sidewalk parking, and driveway blockages, with at least three citations issued and several cases resolved through officer intervention. Additionally, there have been recurring issues with garbage and debris on the street, including reports of abandoned furniture and appliances, though these were either resolved through proper channels or marked as unable to locate.
The building's fire incident history shows three recorded events, including a building fire caused by unintentional ignition (though with no civilian injuries reported), a CO detector malfunction, and a good intent call. While these incidents did not result in injuries, the presence of a building fire and CO detector activation warrants attention. The property has had minimal documented maintenance work in recent years, with only one significant permit from 2010 related to correcting the address on a prior permit. The recurring nature of parking violations and street maintenance issues in the immediate vicinity, combined with the building's age and limited documented maintenance history, suggests the property has relatively few recent improvements or major modifications on record.
