869-873 Shotwell St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The three-unit residential building at 869-873 Shotwell Street in San Francisco's Inner Mission neighborhood, owned by Rivera Imelda S & Miguel, is a three-story flats and duplex structure built in 1900. The building's maintenance history shows some attention to safety infrastructure, with rear stairway repairs documented in 1998 and a reroofing project in 1996, though the latter permit expired.

The property has experienced several significant health and safety issues over the years, with multiple violations recorded in 2005-2009 including improper water heater installation, basement bathroom concerns, fire safety violations, and security issues. A particularly concerning complaint from 1998 documented multiple problems including dry-rotted stairs, an illegal basement unit, heating issues, pest infestations, and plumbing problems. More recently, there have been numerous 311 calls in 2024 regarding garbage, debris, and sanitation issues in the vicinity of the property, including reports of human waste and various types of street cleaning needs, though these external issues are primarily related to public space rather than the building itself.

A single situation involving an alarm system activation with no fire occurred recently, with no civilian injuries reported. While the building has had its share of maintenance and safety concerns in the past, it appears that most historical violations have been resolved, with the exception of one active water leak case from 1998 that remains unresolved. The concentration of recent 311 calls in the area suggests ongoing external maintenance challenges in the immediate vicinity, though these are street-level issues rather than building-specific problems.
