5821-5823 California St, San Francisco, CA 94121

The two-unit residential building at 5821-5823 California Street is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1922, currently owned by Rosemary T Almada Tr. The property has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the years, most recently receiving a $14,000 reroofing in August 2023, which follows a historical pattern of roof maintenance including work completed in 1991.

The building has seen substantial electrical system updates, particularly in 2010 when new lighting and power systems were installed in various areas including tradesman alley, garage, basement, and laundry facilities. Previous improvements include aluminum window installations in 1989 and a bathroom remodel in 2005. The property has experienced some concerning issues in recent years, including a complaint in February 2020 regarding structural concerns with cracks and shaking walls, and another complaint in January 2021 about an unpermitted fence installation exceeding 6 feet in height.

Multiple 311 calls between 2014 and 2024 indicate recurring issues with street cleaning and waste management in the vicinity, though these appear to be primarily external to the building itself. Of particular note is a sewage issue in January 2014 requiring attention from the PUC Sewer Operations, and a more recent sewer-related incident in February 2020. While the building has seen regular maintenance and updates, the occurrence of structural complaints and the need for sewer attention are notable points in the building's history.
