1557-1559 Revere Ave, San Francisco, CA 94124

The two-unit multi-family residential building at 1557-1559 Revere Avenue in Bayview, owned by Helena H Kwan, was constructed in 1965 as a two-story flats and duplex structure. The property experienced significant deck-related issues in late 2018 when a complaint was filed regarding unauthorized deck construction work that exceeded permitted repair limits.

This led to a violation notice on November 8, 2018, requiring corrections to new deck elements including handrails, closed risers, and picket spacing, with particular attention to deck stairs that had reportedly been fully replaced. While the deck repairs were initially permitted at a cost of $3,000, these developments indicate some regulatory compliance challenges during that period, which were not fully resolved until April 12, 2021. More recently, the property has been the subject of multiple service requests between September 2024 and January 2025, primarily related to external maintenance issues including garbage and debris concerns, sidewalk parking violations, and a damaged side sewer vent cover.

As of January 2025, there is an open issue regarding lifted sidewalk conditions. The building's most recent exterior maintenance challenges appear to be primarily related to street-level concerns rather than structural or safety issues with the building itself. The combination of these recent service requests suggests ongoing challenges with exterior maintenance and compliance with urban infrastructure requirements, though none of the recent issues directly indicate concerns with the building's habitability or internal systems.
