943-953 Guerrero St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The 12-unit multi-family residential building at 943-953 Guerrero Street, constructed in 1900 and consisting of three stories, has undergone several significant safety and infrastructure upgrades in recent years. Most notably, in 2024, the property completed a substantial fire safety upgrade, including the installation of a new fire alarm panel and low-frequency horns in units, with associated electrical work totaling over $125,000. This building has demonstrated proactive commitment to safety through its compliance with San Francisco's mandatory soft-story retrofit program (Tier 3), which was completed in 2015 with a $55,000 investment to address seismic improvements.

Recent electrical system upgrades are also underway, with multiple permits issued in November 2024 for replacing outdated fuse boxes and panels. The property has faced several maintenance and safety challenges that have been addressed through prompt corrective actions. A July 2023 general maintenance complaint resulted in the resolution of multiple issues, including fire escape maintenance and various interior surface violations, all of which were abated by August 2023.

The building has maintained an active record of fire safety inspections, with several violations noted and subsequently corrected between 2016 and 2024, including issues with extinguishers, alarm systems, and blocked exits. Historical records show previous concerns about an unauthorized rooftop deck, which was removed in 2012 following a Notice of Violation. Tenant buyouts have occurred at this address, with a notable buyout of $150,000 for two tenants in 2018 at 953 Guerrero Street.
