1540 York St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The three-story multi-family residential building at 1540 York Street in Bernal Heights, owned by Robert C. Martin, consists of two units and was constructed in 1985.

The building has a notable historical compliance issue dating back to May 2007, when multiple citations were issued regarding egress obstructions that required removal, with the process involving several notices of violation and a director's hearing scheduled for May 2008. This violation remains listed as "Active," suggesting that the egress issues may not have been fully resolved. The property has generated multiple 311 calls in recent years, primarily related to street cleaning matters, including reports of overgrown trees (June 2024), human or animal waste (January 2024), and garbage concerns (2020-2022).

There have also been several reports of abandoned vehicles in the vicinity between 2017 and 2019, though all of these vehicles were gone when enforcement arrived. Two building permits were issued in the 1980s: one in 1983 for erection (details unspecified) and another in 1987 to comply with a planning letter, both of which were completed. While the building's permitted work appears to be in order, the persistent active violation regarding egress obstructions would warrant attention from a safety perspective.
