627-633 Irving St, San Francisco, CA 94122

The 3-unit residential building at 627-633 Irving Street in San Francisco's Inner Sunset neighborhood, typically known as "Pluto's," is a historic 3-story structure built in 1911, currently owned by Dennis Bouey. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the years, most notably a substantial $18,500 reroofing project in 2016, following an earlier $3,000 roof work from 2002, and comprehensive fire safety upgrades in 1996-1997 including the installation of a fire sprinkler system, kitchen safety equipment, and various structural repairs including dry rot remediation.

Recent history shows some concerning patterns, with multiple fire safety violations reported in 2020 related to alarm systems, electrical systems, exit maintenance, and sprinkler systems, though these were all eventually abated. The building experienced graffiti vandalism in October 2023, which was quickly addressed. More troubling is the current situation with the property (reported January 2025) regarding what appears to be ongoing sanitation issues in the vicinity, with multiple reports of human waste and debris requiring municipal intervention.

The building's infrastructure has seen maintenance attention over the years, with sewer line work completed in 2009. The property has maintained active commercial operations since at least 1997, as evidenced by multiple ABC liquor license approvals, indicating its continued use as a full-service restaurant with alcohol service. Recent complaints regarding building systems were appropriately addressed, with a July 2024 alarm system issue being corrected by November 2024.
