322 Alemany Blvd, San Francisco, CA 94110

322 Alemany Boulevard, a 4-story multi-family residential building in Bernal Heights, was constructed in 2007 with an original permit for 3 units. Since then, the building has undergone several unauthorized modifications, most significantly the creation of additional units without permits. A 2022 city task force inspection revealed the building had been converted from 3 to 7 units, including unauthorized modifications such as additional kitchens, bedrooms, and partition walls, as well as improper fire safety features.

The building has been the subject of multiple violations regarding fire safety, including a 2022 violation for the lack of fire sprinklers over garbage receptacles and various 2019 fire-related issues including egress problems. Recent building permits show efforts to rectify some of these issues, including a voluntary fire escape retrofit completed in October 2023 and backflow assembly installation completed in 2024. Historical records indicate the original construction included fire sprinklers and electrical systems, but various permits issued and withdrawn between 2002 and 2022 show ongoing attempts to address unauthorized modifications and unit legalization.

The property has experienced multiple code enforcement actions, with several active complaints as of 2024 regarding plumbing violations and unauthorized unit modifications. A 2019 complaint highlighted various maintenance issues including inoperable smoke alarms and egress problems. The building's history shows consistent efforts to address unauthorized modifications and safety violations, with recent work focusing on bringing the building into compliance with current codes. The most recent completed work involves fire safety improvements and system upgrades, though historical records indicate ongoing concerns regarding unit configuration and safety compliance.
