3863-3865 17th St, San Francisco, CA 94114

The property at 3863-3865 17th Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in the Eureka Valley/Dolores Heights neighborhood. Built in 1900 and classified as a Flats & Duplex structure, the building is currently owned by Donald G. Stroh.

The building's documented history shows several significant maintenance and infrastructure improvements over time, including an attempt to raise the foundation on the west side in 1987 (permit expired) and a substantial $15,000 renovation in 2002 that replaced wooden steps with terrazzo at the front of the building. More recently, in 2006, a street space and sidewalk permit was issued, though this particular permit carried no associated cost. The property has experienced multiple infrastructure issues in recent years, particularly related to water systems.

Two water-related incidents were reported in 2015 and 2017, involving leaks that required attention from the Public Utilities Commission (PUC) - with one case involving a packing leak on a street gate valve. The building's location has also experienced some external challenges, including an encampment situation in 2018 that was cleared by Department of Public Works (DPW) and a non-offensive graffiti incident reported in July 2023, which encountered technical issues in case processing. While these incidents are documented, they represent only a snapshot of the building's history and may not fully capture all aspects of the property's current condition.
