680-682 Shotwell St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The two-unit multi-family residential building at 680-682 Shotwell Street, located in San Francisco's Inner Mission neighborhood and owned by Bingham Trust, has a long history dating back to 1900. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the years, including a complete reroofing in 2019 (cost: $15,000), installation of a solar electric system in 2004 (consisting of 17 panels and an inverter, cost: $19,000), and the addition of a sauna installation in 2005.

More recent upgrades include a sewer/housetrap replacement completed in 2018 and ongoing work related to a rear yard garage remodel and potential additional dwelling unit. The building has experienced recurring issues with its alarm systems, with four documented fire alarm complaints between 2023-2024, three of which were resolved with conditions corrected or violations issued.

Multiple fire safety violations were recorded in 2006, including issues with fire system certification, extinguisher maintenance, alarm maintenance, exit obstruction, and improper door hardware, all of which were subsequently abated. The property has also been the subject of various noise complaints, parking enforcement issues, and maintenance matters, with several open cases as of 2024. Of particular note is a recent tenant buyout reported in September 2023 for the adjacent unit (670 Shotwell Street), involving three tenants and a payment of $55,000.
