572-574 San Jose Ave, San Francisco, CA 94110

The property at 572-574 San Jose Ave is a 1-story, 2-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1900, currently owned by Abt LLC. The building has experienced several significant issues over the years, most notably a series of violations and complaints in 2003-2004 that included concerns about lead paint hazards, mold/mildew, water damage, interior surface problems, and stair repairs, all of which were eventually abated by May 2004.

There were structural issues with the front stairs that required repairs in both 2003 and 2008, and more recently, the building has been experiencing vacancy-related problems. As of 2024, there is an active complaint regarding the property being vacant for over ten years, with reports of illegal dumping and safety concerns for the community. Previous complaints from 2022 documented an overgrown backyard creating fire hazards with neighboring properties.

The property has unresolved historical issues with permits, including a cancelled 2002 proposal for horizontal and vertical additions to the duplex, which was associated with subsequent complaints about illegal address usage and building coverage in 2008. While some maintenance has been performed over the years, including window replacement (1994) and reroofing (1993), the building's recent history suggests ongoing maintenance and occupancy challenges, particularly regarding exterior maintenance and vacancy status. There have also been multiple parking enforcement issues documented between 2018 and 2023, though these are unrelated to the building's structural or habitability concerns.
