186-188 Duboce Ave, San Francisco, CA 94103

The two-unit residential building at 186-188 Duboce Avenue, owned by Fred H. Marett and Robert Smith, is a two-story flats/duplex structure built in 1922 in the Mission Dolores neighborhood. The most significant recent issue affecting the property is an open sidewalk defect reported in November 2024 involving a collapsed section, along with another pavement defect reported in January 2024, which remains unresolved as of October 2023.

The building's maintenance history shows proper attention to structural upkeep, with a complete reroofing project completed in December 2018 at a cost of $9,000, following an earlier expired permit from 1991 for the same work. The property has experienced recurring parking issues in recent months, with several documented cases of blocked driveways between October 2024 and January 2025, resulting in at least one citation being issued. There have been multiple street maintenance concerns, including two cleaning incidents resolved in early 2024 involving hazardous materials (glass) and loose garbage.

A pavement defect was addressed in October 2024, though the associated complaints about sidewalk and pavement conditions have persisted. The building's fire safety record shows only one minor incident involving an unintentional alarm system activation with no injuries reported. While the property has maintained basic compliance with major maintenance issues, the concentration of recent sidewalk and pavement concerns, along with parking enforcement needs, indicates areas requiring ongoing observation.
