104-108 Ralston St, San Francisco, CA 94132

The three-unit multi-family residential building at 104-108 Ralston Street, owned by Emily K F Chan and constructed in 1986, has undergone several significant modifications and faced some notable challenges over its history. Most concerning was a fire incident in 2017 that required substantial repairs to the garage level, including drywall replacement and electrical rewiring, with the work completed by May 2017 at a cost of $6,000.

Following this, the property underwent a legalization process for previously unpermitted modifications in 2017-2018, which included the installation of a kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom on the ground floor, with associated electrical and plumbing work totaling approximately $70,000. This legalization effort was formally documented under Permit 201706230173 and related permits for plumbing and electrical work in September 2018.

The building's earlier history includes standard construction-period work in the late 1980s, including inspections and improvements to the lateral force system in 1988. More recent maintenance records show two service requests in 2020-2022, one related to loose garbage cleaning and another general service request, both of which were resolved. The property's permit history suggests it is actively maintained, with all recent major work being properly permitted and completed, though the previous unpermitted modifications required significant effort to bring into compliance.
