973-975 Elizabeth St, San Francisco, CA 94114

The two-unit residential building at 973-975 Elizabeth Street in Noe Valley, owned by John A Doran, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1960. The property has undergone several significant improvements since 2008, including a substantial two-story rear addition (completed in 2009) that featured extended decks, provisions for an elevator, and a rooftop deck, with associated costs totaling $128,000. The addition of an elevator was separately addressed with permits in 2009 ($50,000) and completed by 2010, along with spa installation and other improvements totaling $15,000. In 2008, the building underwent garage modifications, including door height adjustments and the legalization of additional living space (two bedrooms and a bathroom) on the first floor.

Earlier improvements included the construction of a retaining wall in 2005 ($13,000). The building's maintenance record shows one notable incident in 2001 involving issues with rear stairs, which were promptly addressed within two months. The property has had regular utility upgrades, including plumbing work for furnace flue installation, deck drainage, and utility lines in 2010. Electrical improvements have been documented since 2004, with the most recent significant work related to the elevator installation in 2010.

Recent external issues primarily involve street and parking matters rather than building conditions, with multiple reports of abandoned vehicles and parking violations in the vicinity between 2017 and 2022. A missing side sewer vent cover was addressed in 2019, though this was a municipal infrastructure issue rather than a building maintenance concern. The building's major systems appear to be well-maintained, with no active violations or complaints currently on record. The most recent building-related work was completed back in 2010, with no significant issues reported in more recent years.
