1885 Bay Shore Blvd, San Francisco, CA 94124

The 4-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 1885 Bay Shore Blvd in Bayview Heights, owned by Sabina Chrystal Yuen, has experienced several significant maintenance and compliance issues since its 1964 construction. Most recently, in August 2024, work was approved to comply with a previous notice of violation from June 2006, involving the removal of an unpermitted rear deck and patio doors in Unit 2, along with window and wall repair work costing $70,000. The building has undergone various improvements over the years, including front window replacement (2020), reroofing (2020), and structural work such as shoring system installation and underpinning in 2011.

A series of fire safety violations were recorded in September 2016, including issues with fire extinguishers, combustible storage, fire escape maintenance, and lead paint concerns, though these were all abated by May 2024. Recent complaints and violations indicate ongoing maintenance and compliance challenges. In 2023-2024, there were complaints about parking issues, a potentially abandoned/derelict structure concern, and hazardous material storage.

Multiple complaints in 2019 documented various problems including water leaks, mold, rodent and cockroach infestation, and parking access issues. Historical records show a pattern of building maintenance and compliance challenges, including unpermitted construction work, structural problems, and pest infestations. While many past violations have been resolved, the building has required numerous permits and corrective actions to address various safety, structural, and habitability issues over the years, including multiple instances of window replacements, electrical upgrades, and fire safety improvements. The most recent building permit suggest ongoing efforts to bring the property into full compliance with current codes and regulations.
