1296-1298 Dolores St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The two-unit residential building at 1296-1298 Dolores Street is a 2-story flats and duplex structure built in 1922, currently owned by Eric Huang and Chiehying Shen. The property has undergone significant renovations in recent years, with the most substantial work occurring between 2021-2023. Major improvements included a comprehensive interior remodel of bathrooms and kitchens, addition of new bathrooms on the second and third floors, window replacement, and the addition of a roof deck - all completed under a $200,000 permit in 2021.

This was followed by additional modifications in 2022 to revise interior layouts and add a new bedroom. Recent exterior work, completed in 2023, involved replacing stucco surfaces and garage doors. The building underwent significant upgrades to its systems, including a complete electrical overhaul in May 2022 with new panel boards and wiring, and a plumbing renovation that included extensive bathroom and kitchen updates, installation of new water heaters, and radiant heating systems.

An electrical panel upgrade to 200 amps was completed in May 2023. Notably, there was a concerning electrical issue reported in May 2023 regarding improper wiring connections that could pose a fire hazard, though this complaint is listed as not active. In 2021, the building received violations related to lead-based paint, weatherproofing repairs, and interior surface issues, which were abated by July 2023. The property has also experienced some construction-related complaints, including reports of work being done beyond permit scope and renovations without proper permit posting in early 2022, both of which were resolved by November 2022.
