1537 Ocean Ave, San Francisco, CA 94112

The property at 1537 Ocean Avenue is a two-story, mixed-use building constructed in 1922, containing two residential units and ground-floor commercial space housing JoJo's Café. The building's history reveals several significant events, with the most critical being a structure fire in October 2010 that required substantial repairs including kitchen fire damage restoration and installation of a new fire suppression system, completed in 2011 at a cost of $51,000.

More recently, in 2024, the café underwent a legalization process for its awning signage under the amnesty program, which had previously resulted in a complaint due to unpermitted work in July 2022. The building has undergone various maintenance and improvement projects over the years, including reroofing work in 2015 ($6,000), bathroom renovations in 2017 ($3,000), and significant electrical and plumbing upgrades in 2011 related to the café's operations.

Multiple 311 calls from 2024-2025 have been recorded, primarily related to sidewalk cleaning and debris removal, with the most notable being a public health violation in November 2024 involving overcharging customers at All Fresh Market, which has since been resolved. The property remains subject to ongoing maintenance requirements, including attention to an overgrown street tree noted in July 2024, though no immediate safety concerns were reported.
