689-691 Lisbon St, San Francisco, CA 94112

The three-unit multi-family residential building at 689-691 Lisbon Street in the Excelsior neighborhood, owned by Katharine Alsop, has a documented history dating back to 1986. The two-story structure, built in 1910, has undergone several maintenance and repair projects over the years, with particular attention to its exterior features. Recent building improvements include a 2017 deck repair project costing $20,000.

Between 2005 and 2006, the property experienced significant issues with mold and wood rot, particularly affecting the rear stairs and decks, leading to multiple repairs totaling approximately $7,000. These problems were serious enough to prompt three housing complaints in 2005 regarding mold, wood rot, and health concerns, though these complaints were eventually abated. Earlier maintenance work included reroofing in 1997 and various structural repairs such as underpinning work in 1986, repair of stair ballisters and porch guardrails in 1997, and work on stairs and landing repairs in 2005.

The property has generated regular maintenance calls in recent months, particularly regarding garbage and debris on the property, with multiple reports filed between November 2024 and January 2025, all of which have been resolved. There have also been several parking-related complaints in the vicinity during this period, including requests for enforcement of sidewalk parking and driveway blocking, though some of these cases were either invalid or the officers were unable to locate the reported issues. The recent clustering of debris-related complaints suggests ongoing challenges with proper waste management in the immediate area, though these appear to be primarily external to the building itself. It's worth noting that the most serious historical issues with mold and structural decay appear to have been addressed through the various repair permits issued between 2005 and 2017, with no more recent building permits indicating similar concerns.
