1223 Cortland Ave, San Francisco, CA 94110

The three-unit residential building at 1223 Cortland Avenue in Bernal Heights, managed by Bernal Heights Housing Corp, is a three-story flats and duplex structure built in 1900. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the past two decades, with the most recent substantial work completed in March 2021 involving HVAC system upgrades, including furnace replacement and duct work, as well as electrical improvements such as occupancy sensor installations in bathrooms.

Prior renovations include substantial exterior and interior work in 2013, featuring replacement of front stairs, window upgrades, and fireplace modifications, and earlier work in 2005-2006 that addressed major systems including roofing, rear stairs reconstruction due to dry rot, interior repainting, flooring replacement, and electrical system upgrades to 100-amp service. The building has maintained compliance with safety and accessibility standards, with the 2005-2006 improvements including efforts to make the lower unit ADA-compliant.

The property's maintenance history shows attention to both structural and quality-of-life improvements, though there have been some minor issues noted through 311 calls, including reports of improperly stored waste receptacles in 2017 and one parking-related complaint in 2018. While these calls indicate some challenges with building management, they appear to be isolated incidents rather than systemic issues. The building's permit and inspection history demonstrates regular maintenance and updating of essential systems, with all recent permits (2021) marked as complete, suggesting that the most recent improvements were properly executed and approved.
