901-905 South Van Ness Ave, San Francisco, CA 94110

The three-story multi-family residential building at 901-905 South Van Ness Avenue in the Inner Mission, owned by Twentieth & South Van Ness, was constructed in 1900 and contains 6 units plus commercial space. The building experienced significant issues during the mid-2000s, including a fire incident in 2006 that damaged the ground floor restaurant lightwell, leading to violations related to unsafe building conditions. These violations remained until they were finally abated in April 2013, coinciding with repairs to address non-structural smoke damage.

More recent renovations in 2015 focused on improving accessibility, with the addition of ADA-compliant features including a unisex toilet and automatic door opener, along with associated plumbing and electrical work. The building has undergone various maintenance work over the years, including the installation of a new grease trap in 2013, correction of electrical code violations in 2008, and historical permits for reroofing (1997) and bathroom modifications (1988). Although there have been several fire-related incidents recorded, including a cooking fire contained to a container and a rubbish fire, none resulted in civilian injuries.

A recent elevator incident appears to be non-hazardous as well. The property has experienced various maintenance issues in its history, including electrical problems, plumbing concerns, and safety violations regarding smoke alarms and rodent presence, though most of these issues appear to have been resolved. Recent 311 calls primarily relate to street-level concerns such as parking issues and garbage management outside the building. The building's accessible features and recent improvements suggest ongoing maintenance and upgrading efforts, though some historical violations indicate past compliance challenges.
