211 Cortland Ave, San Francisco, CA 94110

The two-unit residential building at 211 Cortland Ave in Bernal Heights, owned by Rita Herndon, is a two-story flats and duplex structure constructed in 1910. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the years, with the most recent being a completed $13,500 reroofing project in December 2024. Other notable improvements include replacement of the rear sliding door and associated wall framing work in 2007, repairs to the front steps in 2003, and restoration of siding and trim in 1996.

Three combustible materials violations were recorded between October 2007 and November 2012, though all were promptly corrected. The building's recent history (2022-2024) shows multiple incidents of construction-related disruptions, particularly in 2023 when there were several reports of blocked sidewalks and parking spaces due to construction equipment. While these issues were resolved, they indicate some challenges with contractor management during building improvements.

The property has also experienced periodic issues with waste management, including reports of toters being left out and loose garbage, though these were generally resolved promptly. Three parking enforcement incidents were documented in 2022-2024, suggesting occasional challenges with parking compliance in the area, though these were separate from building-related issues. The most recent maintenance activity, the December 2024 reroofing project, indicates ongoing upkeep of the property, though it should be noted that the building's permits and repair history show approximately 10-15 year intervals between major improvements, which is typical for a building of this age.
