554 London St, San Francisco, CA 94112

The property at 554 London Street in the Excelsior neighborhood is a 4-story, 2-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 2008, owned by Mi Ling Joe and Wai Sun Joe. The building was developed following the demolition of a single-family dwelling, with permits showing a construction cost of $625,000. The development included the installation of a fire sprinkler system ($16,500) and various utility upgrades in 2007.

Notably, there was a serious safety concern in 2004 when the abandoned previous structure was deemed possibly structurally unsound and hazardous, leading to multiple notices of violation, though these were ultimately abated by March 2008. A 2013 complaint regarding improper construction practices (granite cutting on the sidewalk) was filed but subsequently closed. Recent activity near the property has primarily involved parking and maintenance issues, with multiple 311 calls in 2024 regarding parking violations and some reports of street cleaning concerns.

There are records of two tenant buyouts at a nearby address (566 London Street) in 2017 and 2018, totaling $30,562 for 4 tenants. The building's permits and planning records indicate proper channels were followed for its construction and compliance with safety regulations, particularly with the installation of modern fire safety systems. The property appears to have maintained its structural integrity since the 2004 violations were resolved, with no recent building violations or major safety concerns documented through October 2023.
