238 Shrader St, San Francisco, CA 94117

The two-story, five-unit apartment building at 238 Shrader Street in Park North was constructed in 1916 and has undergone several notable maintenance and safety improvements over its lifetime. Most recently, in October 2024, a $14,000 reroofing project was permitted, demonstrating ongoing maintenance attention. The building has completed its mandatory soft-story retrofit (Tier 3), with work certified as complete and a Certificate of Final Completion (CFC) issued, addressing seismic safety requirements.

In 2003, the property experienced a cluster of violations requiring attention to various safety systems, including water heaters, alarm panels, fire safety, plumbing, handrails, windows, and security features. Fortunately, all these violations were promptly abated by September 2003. The building's maintenance history shows regular attention to basic infrastructure, including a 1988 reroofing project and various repairs to windows and sidewalks.

More recent concerns have centered around external issues such as street cleanliness and parking, with multiple complaints in 2024 regarding garbage debris and blocked driveways. The most recent maintenance activity, prior to the roof work, was a $60,000 project in 2019 related to previously approved soft-story retrofit work. The property has maintained compliance with building codes since the 2003 violations were resolved, with no active housing violations currently on record. Additional maintenance issues noted in 2024 include reports of overgrown trees and graffiti, though these are primarily external to the building structure itself.
