1024 Silver Ave, San Francisco, CA 94134

The property at 1024 Silver Avenue in the Portola neighborhood is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1936, currently owned by Jim and Fanny Z F Huang. The building has a significant history of unauthorized unit conversion issues, starting with violations filed in 2001 and 2003 alleging the conversion of a single-family dwelling into four units, though these were abated in 2006.

The most recent and serious violation occurred in 2005-2006, when enforcement actions were taken against unauthorized cooking facilities and unit conversions in the ground floor hallway and den room, which resulted in a $7,500 compliance cost to remove the illegal improvements. A notable incident from the building's past includes a fire in 1991 that required repairs to burned sections, though details on this incident are limited.

In more recent times, the property has experienced several infrastructure and maintenance issues, with multiple 311 calls in 2024 regarding various concerns including a sewage backup discharge from the side sewer vent, garbage and debris on the property, and a damaged tree that was reportedly about to fall. The building's immediate vicinity has seen ongoing issues with sidewalk parking, with multiple citations issued in 2024, and municipal services have responded to various maintenance needs including water service requests and street cleaning matters. The property remains classified as "not active" in terms of building violations as of now, with recent maintenance and repair issues appearing to be handled through proper channels.
