876-886 Greenwich St, San Francisco, CA 94133

The 6-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 876-886 Greenwich Street in Russian Hill, constructed in 1909 and currently owned by Greenwich Land LLC, has undergone several significant updates and faced various maintenance challenges over the years. In 2015, a notable issue of mold was reported in unit 878's bedroom and closet, attributed to a ceiling leak from the above unit, marking one of the more serious maintenance concerns in recent history. Prior to that, in 2011, there was a hazardous electrical situation involving service drop conductors near an openable window, though this was abated the following day.

The building underwent substantial improvements in 2006, including a comprehensive electrical upgrade that involved installing new sub-panels for each unit, rewiring kitchens and bathrooms, and a cosmetic kitchen and bathroom remodel across multiple units costing $80,000. A concerning incident occurred in 2009 when a wall heater in the hallway was shut down by PG&E due to carbon monoxide fumes, though this was promptly addressed within a day. More recently, the building has experienced typical urban maintenance issues, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls in 2020-2023 related to street cleaning, parking violations, and service requests, though none of these indicate any significant building-specific concerns. The most recent documented building-related permit activity was a street space permit issued in 2015, representing minimal recent structural or systems modifications.

While the property has had its share of maintenance issues, particularly related to electrical systems and ventilation, many of these have been addressed promptly, and significant upgrades were completed in 2006 that modernized critical building systems. The property has maintained compliance with routine inspections, though several permits from 2005 related to additional house numbers were issued, and an electrical permit from 2006 for extensive electrical work has expired. A minor incident involving outside rubbish occurred, but no civilian injuries were reported. The building's maintenance history suggests regular upkeep has generally been performed, with most issues being addressed promptly through appropriate channels, though the relative age of the building and its systems (114 years old) means ongoing maintenance requirements should be anticipated.
