988-992 Capp St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The 4-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 988-992 Capp Street in the Inner Mission, built in 1904 and currently owned by Alexey Rostapshov, has undergone significant recent improvements and currently has several substantial proposed modifications under review. Recent completed projects include a $125,000 interior renovation of the first-floor unit's kitchen and bath (2020), a $26,000 partial seismic strengthening of the first floor (2021), and comprehensive electrical upgrades including a new 400-amp service and additional meter installations (2021).

The building has received proper attention to safety concerns, with the resolution of multiple housing inspection violations in 2015 related to fire safety systems and stair repairs, all of which were abated by October 2015. The property is currently under review for a major renovation project that proposes to add 925 square feet and three new units within the existing garage/crawl space, along with substantial enlargements of the existing units on all floors.

This proposed work, which would require variances for front setback, rear yard, and other modifications, includes plans for new emergency exit stairs, an electrical room, foundation replacement, and voluntary seismic retrofit. The building's maintenance history shows regular upkeep, including roof replacement (2020), garage structural repairs (2018), and various plumbing and electrical improvements. Recent 311 calls regarding the property have been primarily related to external issues such as sidewalk blockage and street cleaning matters, rather than building-specific concerns.
