1000-1004 Dolores St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The 6-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 1000-1004 Dolores Street in Noe Valley, owned by Elizabeth A. Connell, has a complex maintenance and compliance history dating back to its 1900 construction. Most recently, in 2024, there have been multiple concerning tenant complaints regarding a leaking roof causing water damage and mold issues, concrete landing problems, and vegetation overgrowth affecting sidewalk accessibility.

The building underwent significant plumbing work in 2023, including comprehensive sewer line replacements in March, though this work generated a complaint about unauthorized construction. The property has completed its mandatory soft-story seismic retrofit requirements, achieving Tier 3 compliance, but had previously generated violations for not meeting this requirement. The building's maintenance history shows attention to safety concerns over the years, with multiple handrail installations and repairs, including issues with overgrown vegetation affecting stairway safety in 2021-2022.

Fire safety has been a recurring concern, with several fire code violations and complaints regarding alarm systems and blocked exits between 2016-2019, though most were resolved promptly. The property has seen various infrastructure improvements, including deck repairs (2017), water heater installations, and sewer line updates, but has also faced multiple building violations between 2000-2024, including issues with interior surfaces, security requirements, and plumbing aspects. Recent complaints suggest ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly regarding exterior conditions and water-related issues, while historical records show periods of more significant violations that required prompt attention.
