1013-1017 Divisadero St, San Francisco, CA 94115

The property at 1013-1017 Divisadero Street is a mixed-use building constructed in 1925, consisting of two residential units and a commercial space, currently owned by Karen Natoli Maxwell. The building has undergone significant recent commercial development, with the most notable change being the conversion of a former laundromat to a cannabis retail store in 2021, which included a $120,000 build-out with subsequent modifications including a service counter revision ($1) in 2023. The building has seen substantial infrastructure improvements, particularly in 2012-2023, including complete rewiring of all units, installation of a new 400-amp electrical panel, kitchen renovations, and the most recent addition of a gas furnace and ductwork in October 2023.

The property has experienced some maintenance and compliance issues over the years. A scraping paint violation was filed in March 2021, and there have been recurring issues with graffiti on both the residential and commercial portions of the building, particularly notable during the pandemic period when enforcement was suspended. More recently, in July 2024, there was a sewage backup issue that required attention from the Public Utilities Commission.

The building's commercial space has generated some street-related complaints, including illegal parking incidents and sidewalk space concerns, particularly during the cannabis retail transition period. Historical context shows past illegal use violations in 2015-2016 involving unauthorized music events, though these appear to have been addressed. The property's recent transitions and improvements indicate significant investment in both residential and commercial components, though residents should note the building's history of graffiti occurrences and recent maintenance issues.
