34-36 Bessie St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The three-story multi-family residential building at 34-36 Bessie Street in Bernal Heights, owned by Kaplan Sue M & Mccarthy Cat, is a two-unit structure built in 1904. The property has undergone several significant renovations and maintenance projects over the years, with the most substantial work occurring between 2006-2008 when the building's foundations were replaced, retaining walls and entry stairs were rebuilt, and major electrical and plumbing upgrades were completed.

This included the installation of new wiring for lighting and electrical systems, along with bathroom, washer/dryer, and kitchen improvements, with permits showing work valued at up to $65,000. More recent maintenance includes sidewalk repairs in 2015, and historical records indicate reroofing was completed in 1996. The building's recent history from 2024-2025 shows multiple street-level issues typical for urban areas, including several reports of garbage and debris removals, autonomous vehicle complaints, and one illegal parking incident, all of which were addressed by appropriate city services.

There are also records of maintenance requests regarding an overgrown tree and noise complaints, with one transportation-related request still showing as open. Two planning records indicate a rear yard garage reconstruction project that was approved, though no developer information is provided. While the property has had its share of typical urban challenges, the building's structural and systems improvements from 2006-2008 suggest a period of substantial investment in maintaining and upgrading the property.
