1743-1747 Pine St, San Francisco, CA 94109

The four-story, multi-family residential building at 1743-1747 Pine Street in Lower Pacific Heights, owned by Bernard O'driscoll Lvg Tr, was constructed in 1900 and contains 2 units. The property has undergone several significant renovations and faced multiple safety-related issues over the years, with the most substantial work occurring between 2003-2008.

This included the installation of safety features such as new handrails on back stairs (2003), fire separation in the basement storage room (2005), and various fire safety improvements to address violations issued in 2004-2006. These violations, which were all ultimately abated by November 2007, included requirements for fire extinguishers, smoke detection systems, fire separation, and building permits. The building has experienced recurring maintenance and safety compliance challenges, including illegal unit complaints in 2014 and multiple 311 calls regarding garbage and debris removal in recent months (September-December 2024).

There have been several fire department responses over the years, though none resulted in civilian injuries or significant damage, primarily relating to smoke removal and system malfunctions. Recent street conditions around the property have generated multiple service requests for abandoned items and waste removal, including reports of human waste and debris (September-November 2024), suggesting ongoing external maintenance challenges in the vicinity of the building. The most recent building permits on record are from 2014-2015 for streetspace-related work, indicating limited major structural changes in recent years.
