595-599 Naples St, San Francisco, CA 94112

The property at 595-599 Naples Street is a two-story multi-family residential building with ground-floor commercial space, constructed in 1902 and currently owned by Syts Investment LLC. The building has undergone several significant modifications and improvements over the years, including the successful completion of an accessory dwelling unit (ADU) project in 2019 valued at $200,000, and multiple renovation projects between 2008-2019 involving substantial electrical and plumbing upgrades, including complete rewiring of both floors and plumbing renovations of bathrooms and kitchens. The property experienced multiple housing code violations in 2019, including issues with mold, interior surfaces, and lead paint concerns, all of which were abated by September 2019.

There are also more recent maintenance concerns, including a work complaint in February 2023 regarding a non-functional gas stove vent/hood system, and ongoing issues with a leak reported in December 2024. Historical records indicate some unauthorized modifications occurred, with a complaint filed in 2017 regarding extensive unpermitted work in the rear building, though this complaint was eventually abated in 2022. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of addressing various structural and safety concerns, including dry rot repairs in 2016, multiple bathroom and kitchen remodels, and compliance with various building codes. The property underwent significant improvements in 2009 when both floors received complete electrical rewiring and various systems were upgraded.

Recent 311 calls indicate ongoing issues with exterior maintenance, particularly regarding garbage and debris management as observed in 2024. While the majority of historical code violations have been resolved, some recurring issues suggest ongoing maintenance challenges. Current building records show work related to modifying the facade of the detached structure, including window modifications and garage door changes, though this appears to be within the permitted building envelope. The property has maintained its status as a multi-family residential building with ground-floor commercial space, as originally designed, despite historical concerns about unauthorized unit conversions that were subsequently addressed through proper permitting processes.
