9 Belcher St, San Francisco, CA 94114

The two-story multi-family residential building at 9 Belcher Street in the Duboce Triangle, owned by Alex Henry Davis, has experienced several maintenance issues and violations over the past few years. Most notably, in late 2022 through early 2023, there were significant problems with bathroom flooding, ceiling bubbling, and potential mold growth, with reports indicating the landlord suggested painting over the mold. The building has undergone multiple stair and railing repairs between 2016-2018, including issues with dry rot and a lack of proper permits for repairs to the front stairs and rear stairway.

In 2016, the property faced serious maintenance challenges including damaged siding, lead paint hazards, and various building code violations that required multiple permits and repairs totaling several thousand dollars. The property's maintenance history shows ongoing infrastructure work, including a complete reroofing in 2011, replacement of the house trap and sewer line, and several stairway repairs. Building safety concerns have been addressed through various permits, including lead paint remediation and stair repairs, though some violations were noted for improper permits and fire safety compliance.

Recent records from late 2024 and early 2025 show street-level issues such as graffiti (both offensive and non-offensive), parking violations, and garbage concerns, though these are primarily external to the building itself. Two alarm activations with no fire incidents were recorded, and there have been no civilian injuries reported in any incidents. While many of the historical violations have been resolved, the recent water intrusion and mold issues from 2022-2023 suggest continuing maintenance challenges within the property.
