1003-1011 Anza St, San Francisco, CA 94118

The 5-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 1003-1011 Anza Street in the Inner Richmond, owned by the Quiery Family Decedent's Trust, has undergone several significant improvements and faced some notable challenges since its construction in 1916. Most recently, the building completed its mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2018, having previously been cited in 2017 for not filing the necessary permit, which put the property out of compliance with San Francisco's earthquake safety requirements until the work was finally completed and the Certificate of Final Completion (CFC) issued. The building has also seen substantial infrastructure upgrades, including a complete reroofing in 2012 (cost: $7,000), replacement of outdated electrical panels in 2018, and conversion of all water supply pipes from galvanized to copper in 2010, demonstrating ongoing maintenance and safety improvements. The property's maintenance history shows attention to critical systems, though there have been some periods of concern.

A serious housing complaint was filed in 2010 regarding unfinished bathroom work exposing pipes and wires, which was eventually resolved in 2012. Four fire safety-related violations were noted in 2002, including issues with fire extinguishers and egress obstructions, though these were promptly abated within a week of citation. While the building has primarily received routine safety inspections since then, recent activity around the property has included several 311 calls for street-related issues such as parking violations, garbage, and debris concerns in 2024. The most recent tenant buyout record shows a payment of $120,000 to one tenant at a nearby address in February 2022.

The building's soft-story status is now classified as complete, indicating compliance with current seismic safety requirements. The building has a history of addressing major infrastructure needs, with permits showing investment in safety requirements such as the soft-story retrofit ($120,000) and electrical system updates. Frequent routine inspections and prompt resolution of violations suggest active management of building safety requirements, though the pattern of violations and complaints from 2002-2010 indicates prior periods requiring more intensive oversight. The most recent building improvements and completed safety retrofits suggest a focus on maintaining current building codes and safety requirements, particularly regarding seismic safety compliance.
