353 Rivera St, San Francisco, CA 94116

The property at 353 Rivera Street is a 2-story, 3-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1926, currently owned by Ellen R. Hepburn. The building has experienced significant maintenance and safety compliance issues, particularly during 2019 when multiple violations were documented under complaint 201921282.

These violations, which remain active as of October 2023, include problems with fire safety equipment, electrical systems, and lead paint hazards, among others. The building's history shows a pattern of safety-related concerns, including broken windows, missing fire extinguishers, and incomplete smoke detector installations. In March 2022, a permit was issued to address some of these violations by repairing fireproofing in the ground floor common areas, though many violations from 2019 remain unresolved. More recent history shows ongoing maintenance challenges, with multiple 311 calls in late 2024 regarding street cleaning, graffiti, and parking issues near the property.

A planning record from 2018 indicates concerns about parking in landscaping areas. The building has generated some fire department responses, though these appear to be primarily for false alarms or system testing. Several complaints and violations dating back to 2018-2019 suggest ongoing issues with building maintenance and safety compliance, including a history of unauthorized modifications such as an illegal front yard wall (2018) and problems with electrical systems. While there have been routine inspections and some code enforcement activity, many violations from the 2019 task force inspection remain active as of the latest records.
