16-18 Fairmount St, San Francisco, CA 94131

The 16-18 Fairmount Street property is a multi-family residential building located in Glen Park, consisting of 3 units across 2 stories, owned by Franco & Gabriella Cirelli and constructed in 1979. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and renovation projects over the past four decades, with the most recent work focusing on exterior improvements. Currently, there are active building violations from May 2024 regarding unauthorized modifications beyond the scope of a stucco replacement project, including the removal of two street-facing balconies and replacement of patio doors and windows.

This violation has resulted in monthly monitoring fees. Earlier exterior projects include a 2024 stucco replacement, a completed 2022 siding replacement on the west-facing side, and a 2004 re-roofing project. The building has also undergone interior improvements, including a 2018 kitchen and bathroom remodel valued at $35,000, and plumbing upgrades such as a bathroom renovation and kitchen sink replacement. Historical complaints indicate some past concerns about unauthorized modifications, including complaints about an illegal ground floor unit (1999) and an unauthorized stairway construction (1997), both of which were resolved.

The building's maintenance record shows attention to structural issues, with dryrot repairs to decks completed in 2004, and a hand-dug sewer replacement from the house trap completed in 2016. While there have been numerous 311 calls in recent months, these primarily relate to external issues such as sidewalk blockages, abandoned vehicles, and street cleaning matters, rather than building-specific problems. The property has experienced one recorded electrical incident involving a downed power line, but no civilian injuries were reported. The current owners have shown consistent investment in building maintenance and improvements, with recent work focused on exterior updates and compliance with building codes, although there remains an active violation under review.
