189 College Ave, San Francisco, CA 94110

The three-unit, three-story TIC building at 189 College Avenue in Bernal Heights, owned by Matthew L. Schumpert, was constructed in 1910 and has undergone several significant renovations and improvements over the past decade. Most notably, in 2018, unit #3 received a comprehensive $50,000 renovation including kitchen remodeling, washer/dryer installation, new bathroom vanity, and flooring updates, along with associated plumbing and electrical work.

The building has seen substantial infrastructure improvements, including seismic safety measures with anchor bolt installation in 2014 ($7,000), window replacements in 2013 ($17,600) maintaining historical accuracy, and major utility upgrades including complete domestic hot water piping replacement, drain lines repair, and new storm water systems installed in 2013 ($40,000). The property underwent historic facade restoration in 2013, which included window and wood trim replacement. The building's maintenance and compliance history shows attention to safety requirements, though there were some violations noted in 2009 regarding fire extinguisher maintenance and unit identification, which were promptly addressed within a month.

Recent concerns have primarily centered around external issues, with several 311 calls in 2024 relating to abandoned vehicles and street maintenance, though these are not directly related to building conditions. A tree-related property damage issue from January 2024 regarding lifted sidewalk tree roots is currently listed as open. The building's historical records indicate it has received appropriate attention to both preservation and modernization needs, with particular focus on maintaining its structural integrity and historical character.
