778-788 Shotwell St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The 6-unit residential building at 778-788 Shotwell Street in the Inner Mission, owned by Mesita 2001 Family Trust, was constructed in 1908 and has undergone several significant improvements in recent years. Most notably, the building completed mandatory seismic retrofit work in 2018 as part of San Francisco's Soft Story program, which was previously noted as a violation in 2017. Recent maintenance includes a completed re-roofing project in early 2024 costing $25,000.

In 2015-2016, the property underwent a comprehensive safety inspection that identified multiple issues including the need for carbon monoxide detectors, smoke alarms, and various safety improvements. All these violations were resolved by May 2016. The building's history shows regular maintenance and compliance with city requirements, though there have been occasional issues such as an illegal electrical setup reported in 2000 and a recent complaint in 2024 about construction hours during the recent roofing work.

The property's status as a Tier 3 soft-story building indicates completion of required seismic improvements. The surrounding area has seen various street-level issues recently, primarily related to parking violations and occasional garbage concerns, though these are not directly related to the building's condition or management. The property's maintenance record shows a pattern of addressing both routine upkeep and mandatory improvements, suggesting active management of residential safety requirements.
