627 14th St, San Francisco, CA 94114

The three-story, six-unit multi-family residential building at 627 14th Street in Mission Dolores, owned by Decedents Trust The and dating back to 1900, has undergone several significant improvements over the past decades. Most notably, the building completed its mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2019 (at a cost of $50,000) in compliance with San Francisco's earthquake safety requirements, following a complaint in December 2018 regarding non-compliance. Recent building maintenance has included substantial $31,300 reroofing work completed in 2021, while the building's historical records show earlier improvements such as vinyl siding installation in 1990 and reroofing in 1992.

The building has faced two major routine housing inspections that generated multiple violations requiring correction. The first occurred in March 2005, identifying issues such as fire extinguisher maintenance, smoke enclosure door closers, and guardrail repairs, all of which were resolved by April 2005. A subsequent inspection in June 2010 noted concerns including central alarm system maintenance and egress obstructions, though many of these violations were similar to those cited in the earlier inspection.

In December 2022, a fire alarm system issue was identified and corrected within two weeks. The property has had various maintenance and service calls in recent years, including multiple reports of loose garbage (2020-2022) and the most recent 311 complaint regarding excessive noise from October 2024, which remains open. The building's historical records also show foundation work and dry rot repairs attempted in 1990, though that permit expired.
