1369-1371 Greenwich St, San Francisco, CA 94109

The 5-unit residential building at 1369-1371 Greenwich Street in Russian Hill is a 2-story, multi-family property constructed in 1908, currently owned by Eleanor Lorraine Thompson R. The building has a documented history of structural maintenance issues, particularly regarding dry rot, with multiple repair permits issued between 1999 and 2009 addressing this recurring problem.

Most notably, in October 2009, the building underwent significant rear facade work including dry rot repairs, siding replacement, and window installations, with costs totaling $15,000. The property has also experienced several housing inspections, with a routine inspection in July 2006 revealing multiple violations including fire safety concerns (such as smoke enclosure door issues and lack of fire extinguishers) and building maintenance needs (including repairs to a wood post), though all these violations were abated by September 2006.

More recent maintenance activities include plumbing work in August 2009 for gas line and water heater installations, and there have been some exterior issues documented through 311 calls, including graffiti (February 2023) and general cleaning needs (June 2020). The building's fire safety systems have had at least one recorded incident, though it was attributed to a malfunctioning smoke detector with no civilian injuries reported. While the building has maintained compliance with housing regulations since 2006, the historical pattern of dry rot issues and past violations suggests ongoing attention to building maintenance has been required.
