609-615 Cortland Ave, San Francisco, CA 94110

The property at 609-615 Cortland Ave is a two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1908 in Bernal Heights, containing three residential units and ground-floor commercial space. The building has undergone significant modifications over the years, including a major change of use from a meat market to a cafe in 2002, followed by extensive renovations including foundation work, fire suppression system installations, and electrical upgrades. The property has experienced recurring issues with boiler permit compliance, with violations recorded in 2005, 2015, and 2021, though these were eventually resolved.

Recent maintenance history shows attention to infrastructure needs, including a 2010 boiler replacement and various plumbing and electrical upgrades. However, there have been multiple sewer-related incidents recorded through 311 calls between 2020-2024, suggesting ongoing municipal infrastructure challenges in the area. The most recent building activities include a health department inspection in August 2024, though the specific outcome was not detailed in the records.

A fire complaint from March 2020 regarding hood and duct service was deemed to have no merit. The property underwent an underground electrical conversion in 2005, and various repair works were completed through the years, including reroofing and sidewalk repairs. The ground-floor commercial space is currently permitted for restaurant use under NC-2 zoning, with the most recent planning approval for continued restaurant use granted to Trakarnwutikosol, Burin. While the building's age and history show regular maintenance and upgrades, the recurring boiler permit issues and recent environmental health concerns warrant attention to ongoing compliance requirements.
