2621 San Jose Ave, San Francisco, CA 94112

The property at 2621 San Jose Ave is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in Oceanview and built in 1912, currently owned by the Patricia G Julian Living Trust. The building has undergone several significant renovations over the years, with the most substantial work occurring between 2013-2015 when new bathrooms were added and existing bathrooms were upgraded, along with associated plumbing and electrical work including new windows in bedrooms and various bathroom fixtures.

These improvements, with an approximate cost of $40,328, were completed following a series of violations and abatement proceedings initiated in 2013 regarding an unauthorized horizontal addition at the rear of the property. The violation case, which included multiple Notice of Violation letters and a director hearing in March 2014, was ultimately resolved in March 2015 through a variance approval that legalized the rear yard alteration. The building has experienced recurring sewer issues, with documented backups occurring in December 2019, November 2020, March 2022, and most recently in December 2023, suggesting an ongoing plumbing challenge.

Other maintenance records show the building received a new roof in 1994-1995, and various structural repairs to stairs, siding, roofing, and footings were permitted in 1995, though some permits from this period expired. Recent 311 calls near the property have mostly been regarding street-related issues such as parking violations and tree maintenance, with the most recent being reports of abandoned vehicles in September 2024. The property's historical records demonstrate a pattern of necessary maintenance and upgrades, particularly focusing on bathroom improvements and addressing building code compliance issues, while also highlighting persistent sewer system challenges that have required multiple interventions over the years.
