615 Precita Ave, San Francisco, CA 94110

The two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building at 615 Precita Ave in Bernal Heights, owned by Grotte Family Trust, has a documented history dating back to 1994 when efforts were made to legalize a ground floor level. This 1917 structure has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement work over the years, including two roof replacements (2000 and 2019), a comprehensive renovation in 2001 that involved siding replacement, kitchen and bathroom remodeling, and the installation of new cabinets and appliances.

The property experienced some regulatory challenges in 1997, with complaints regarding illegal construction and improper plastic piping installation, though these issues were resolved. In recent years, there have been several 311 calls primarily related to street and sidewalk maintenance, including issues with human/animal waste (2023, 2022), parking violations (2022), and general cleaning needs, though these external matters don't directly impact the building's interior conditions. The building's recent history shows regular maintenance, with the most significant recent work being the 2019 reroofing project costing $20,000.

Planning records confirm that the building has received necessary exceptions from off-street parking and usable open space requirements, which were part of the legalization process for the second dwelling unit. The property has an active maintenance record, with most recent 311 calls being resolved through appropriate city services, though the nature of these calls suggests some ongoing challenges with the immediate neighborhood environment rather than the building itself. The most recent building-related communication was a rent board inquiry in October 2023, which was resolved through direct communication with city representatives.
