696-698 Guerrero St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The 3-story multi-family residential building at 696-698 Guerrero Street, built in 1924 in the Mission Dolores neighborhood, contains 9 units and has undergone several significant improvements over the years. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory Tier 4 seismic soft-story retrofit in 2014, including new foundations and shearwalls at a cost of $40,000.

Recent building maintenance includes a roof replacement in 2017 costing $23,000, and various plumbing and electrical upgrades associated with the corner store's renovation. The property has experienced recurring issues with its fire safety systems, with violations recorded in 2018, 2019, and most recently in October 2023 regarding alarm systems, though all these violations were subsequently abated. A notable complaint from 2019 involved noise from a store compressor affecting a first-floor apartment, and there have been recent compliance issues identified in June 2023 requiring attention to smoke/carbon monoxide detectors and fire escape maintenance, which have since been resolved.

The building's maintenance history shows regular attention to structural and safety systems, including stair repairs in 2005 and various street space permits over the years. While the property has experienced multiple false fire alarms and system malfunctions, no actual fire incidents have occurred that resulted in injuries or significant damage. Recent 2024 311 calls have primarily concerned exterior maintenance issues such as graffiti and debris, which have been addressed through normal municipal channels.
