457 Andover St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The three-story multi-family residential building at 457 Andover Street in Bernal Heights, owned by Donald and Lorna D Pipkins, was constructed in 1900 and contains two units. The property has a significant history of water drainage issues, with the most recent active concern being a broken rain gutter causing water diversion onto the neighboring property, first documented in November 2021.

This led to subsequent repairs in June 2022. The building has experienced multiple periods of permit-related challenges, including an administrative permit in 2019 to clarify its use as a single-family dwelling, and historical work involving horizontal additions and exterior restoration dating back to the 1990s.

Several violations were recorded between 2010 and 2019, including issues with roofing work, drainage systems, and vacant building concerns, though most have been resolved. Recent activity at the property has primarily involved municipal services addressing external matters such as tree maintenance and sidewalk access, with multiple 311 calls in 2024 regarding various public works issues. The building's record shows a pattern of maintenance and compliance challenges over the years, with particular attention needed to the ongoing water drainage system concerns, which have persisted through multiple complaints and violations.
