965 South Van Ness Ave, San Francisco, CA 94110

The two-unit residential building at 965 South Van Ness Avenue, owned by Mary Ann C Hartman, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1908 in the Inner Mission neighborhood. The property's documented history reveals several maintenance and safety concerns over recent years, with the most significant being multiple instances of graffiti affecting the property's exterior and adjacent public areas between 2022 and 2024.

These include both offensive and non-offensive graffiti on the sidewalk and nearby poles, with the most recent occurrence recorded in July 2024. The building's infrastructure has required attention, with an expired permit from 2000 documenting a 3-foot-wide underpinning project.

The property has experienced recurring sanitation issues, with three reports of human or animal waste on the street or sidewalk between October 2021 and February 2022, two of which required resolution by Department of Public Works personnel. Additional maintenance issues have included hazardous materials (specifically glass) on adjacent public property in April 2022, and two separate public works service requests in late 2021 concerning a missing utility vault cover and general maintenance needs. While the building itself is relatively old, dating back to 1908, the record shows no major structural permits or building code violations in recent years, though the numerous graffiti and sanitation issues in the immediate vicinity may impact resident experience.
