9 Bache St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The two-story multi-family residential building at 9 Bache Street in Bernal Heights, owned by Rucker Rudy & Thomas Penelo, was constructed in 1900 and contains three units. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the past few decades, with the most substantial work occurring in 2015-2016 when foundation strengthening was attempted (though this permit expired), along with comprehensive plumbing updates including bathroom renovations and floor drains, plus hydronic tubing installation in the slab.

During this period, electrical work was also completed, including a Ufer ground installation. Previous improvements include a complete window replacement in 2006 with Marvin Alside double-hung windows, a furnace replacement in 2013, and a 200-amp electrical service upgrade also in 2013. A reroofing project was completed in 1995.

The building's maintenance record has recently experienced a noteworthy incident, with a sewage back-up discharge from the side sewer vent recorded in August 2024, which was promptly addressed and resolved. The property has generated multiple 311 calls over the past several years, though most are unrelated to building maintenance, focusing instead on parking enforcement issues, including several instances of sidewalk parking between 2019-2020 that resulted in at least two citations. Other complaints primarily concerned abandoned vehicles and general parking violations, with enforcement officers often unable to locate the offending vehicles.
