Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 146 San Carlos Street in San Francisco's Inner Mission neighborhood is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1906, currently owned by Carlos Manuel Figueroa. The property's documented history shows some concerning patterns, particularly in 2019 when a housing complaint was filed regarding unsafe conditions including an illegal room with a collapsed wall create openings to neighboring property, security issues with doors, and persistent mold problems - though it's worth noting this complaint is currently listed as "Not Active" with an unspecified abatement status. Between 2023 and 2024, there have been multiple reports of excessive noise (currently open cases), and in late 2023, instances of graffiti were reported on the building, though one of these cases was eventually closed due to lack of response. The property has also been the subject of several 311 calls regarding street cleaning issues and loose garbage (all resolved) during 2023, as well as one marked as having no conditions found regarding a curb defect. On the more positive side, the building was fitted with a solar panel system (23 modules, 6.9 kW) in 2018, though the associated electrical permit is currently listed as expired.
