1123-1125 Grant Ave, San Francisco, CA 94133

The three-story, six-unit multi-family residential building at 1123-1125 Grant Avenue in the Financial District North, owned by Rick & Linda Der Investment, has a mixed history spanning over a century since its 1912 construction. The property has experienced several significant safety and compliance issues, most notably a cluster of violations in 2013 related to fire safety, including fire escape maintenance, fire alarm system certification, and emergency egress obstruction, though these were all abated by September 30, 2013.

More recent safety improvements include a major fire alarm system installation in March 2023 costing $27,837, followed by additional upgrades in October 2023 to comply with current safety standards. The building's history includes several concerning incidents regarding unauthorized short-term rentals, with complaints in 2014 and 2013 about unit 3 being rented as unauthorized hotel accommodation, though these complaints are now inactive. The property has undergone various structural and safety improvements over the years, including a reroofing project in 1991, removal of a non-permitted deck in 2007, and multiple routine inspections showing varying levels of compliance with housing codes.

Recent fire safety-related responses include two false alarm activations (one due to malfunction and another unintentional) and a contained cooking fire incident, all with no civilian injuries reported. While the building's overall safety record has shown improvement with recent fire system upgrades, the property has experienced recurring issues with unauthorized rentals, resulting in violations and enforcement actions. The surrounding area has faced typical urban challenges, as evidenced by recent 311 calls documenting graffiti on parking meters and sidewalk cleanliness issues, though these external factors are not directly related to building management or conditions.
