1156 Capp St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The two-unit, two-story residential building at 1156 Capp Street in San Francisco's Inner Mission neighborhood, owned by Wong Wing Art and constructed in 1907, has experienced several notable incidents in recent months. Most significantly, in September 2024, multiple building violations were filed regarding lead hazard concerns, including damaged paint requiring removal or covering, and the need for weather-proofing repairs on the stucco exterior. These violations, along with related notices to paint walls, were officially abated by December 2024.

A separate complaint from September 2024 also reported safety issues including hazardous outlet wiring and exposed wiring in the main building, as well as concerns about an abandoned structure; this complaint was also marked as not active by December 2024. The property has been affected by significant external challenges in late 2024 through early 2025, particularly with respect to nearby encampments and waste management issues. There were multiple documented encampments (nine reports total) between November 2024 and January 2025, with reports generally showing resolution through removal or clearance efforts.

Several instances of street and sidewalk cleaning were required, with various categories of debris including garbage, yard waste, and other materials reported between November 2024 and January 2025. While these external issues don't directly impact the building's structural integrity or safety, they do indicate the building's location is facing broader neighborhood challenges during this period. The only recorded building improvement in the property's history was a completed permit for aluminum window installation from 1985.
