388 Park St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The three-unit, two-story multi-family residential building at 388 Park Street in Bernal Heights, owned by Andre & Joanna Gros-balthaz, has undergone several significant renovations and faced various maintenance challenges since its construction in 1907. Most recently, in April 2024, permitted work is underway for a kitchen and bathroom remodel in one unit, including updates to cabinets, countertops, appliances, and bathroom fixtures at a cost of $45,000. In 2022, the building received substantial exterior improvements including the replacement of 26 street-facing windows, repairs to dry rot siding, and a complete exterior repainting.

The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues related to security and access, with recent complaints (as of December 2024) regarding heating system deficiencies and problematic kitchen window gaps. A notable cluster of complaints emerged in 2017 regarding security vulnerabilities with the Andover Street garage and a rear patio gate, though these were marked as not active. Historical issues include a documented case of mildew in two bedrooms in 1993, with all previous housing inspections (1999, 2007) showing routine compliance.

The building's recent maintenance history shows active management, with multiple permits for upgrading and maintaining the property. However, there are some ongoing concerns worth noting: as of December 2024, there are active complaints regarding both heating system inadequacies and window issues in one unit. The surrounding area has experienced various municipal service calls in 2024, primarily related to street maintenance, including tree root damage to the sidewalk, though these are external to the building itself. The property has maintained compliance with building codes since a major code compliance project was completed in 1987, and regular updates to building systems and features suggest ongoing investment in property maintenance.
