391-397 Green St, San Francisco, CA 94133

The three-story multi-family residential building at 391-397 Green Street in Telegraph Hill, owned by the De La Cruz Family Trust, was constructed in 1910 and contains 5 units. The property has experienced recurring issues with water damage and dry rot over the past decade, with multiple repairs documented between 2017 and 2021. Most recently, a significant reroofing project was completed in October 2021 at a cost of $23,700.

The building underwent several plumbing and electrical improvements, including the installation of a new half bathroom in 2018-2019, gas system upgrades in 2020, and electrical rewiring work in 2018. The property has faced several safety and maintenance challenges, particularly during 2016 when multiple building violations were recorded, including concerns about water damage, fire escape maintenance, fire safety equipment, and rodent infestation. These issues were addressed and abated by March 2016. Earlier violations from 2014-2015 noted concerns about lead paint on upper windows, and a 2003 complaint reported serious bathroom maintenance issues.

The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of addressing systemic issues, particularly with water damage, as evidenced by multiple dry rot repairs and roofing work. Recent infrastructure upgrades suggest ongoing maintenance and modernization efforts, though the recurring nature of certain maintenance issues, particularly regarding water intrusion and plumbing systems, is notable. The property has experienced relatively few recent complaints or violations, with the most recent building-related issues appearing to be primarily related to exterior maintenance and infrastructure, such as the 2022 flooding incident that was determined to be a private property issue. The building's age and multi-unit configuration have required regular maintenance updates, as evidenced by the various permits and repair work documented over the years.
