1800 Grove St, San Francisco, CA 94117

The 1800 Grove Street property is a 4-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1916, currently owned by the Julia Claire Molla Revocable Trust. The building has a history of structural maintenance and safety system improvements, with significant recent work including foundation repairs to the garage in 2022 ($30,000) and stucco repairs in 2021 (following a vehicle impact). Earlier foundation work included substantial repairs in 2005, along with bolting of mudsills to the foundation.

The building has experienced multiple fire safety system incidents, with the most recent fire alarm system complaint in April 2024 being corrected promptly. There have been four documented fire-related incidents since 2024, all involving alarm system activations or detector responses with no injuries reported. The property has undergone regular safety inspections, with documented violations in 2003 and 2009 primarily related to fire escape ladders, wood stairs, and smoke detection systems, all of which were resolved.

Notably, there was a discretionary review process initiated regarding a potential illegal unit merger in 1994-1995, and another review in 2024 regarding unit numbers. Recent months have seen multiple 311 calls (though not all directly related to the building), primarily concerning graffiti and encampments in the vicinity. The most concerning recent issues relate to multiple graffiti incidents reported between December 2024 and January 2025, with some classified as offensive, and temporary encampments near the property in early 2025, though many of these cases were unable to be located or resolved promptly.
