569-571 Minna St, San Francisco, CA 94103

The three-story, 6-unit multi-family residential building at 569-571 Minna Street, owned by Canon San Antonio Properties, has undergone significant improvements and some challenges since its construction in 1911. Most notably, the building completed its mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2021 (at a cost of $30,000) after previously failing to comply with the Tier III requirement in 2019, which generated a housing inspection for multiple violations including damaged ceilings, inadequate fire safety measures, and plumbing issues - all of which were abated by April 2016. The property has seen substantial unit renovations, particularly in Units 569A and 571A, with comprehensive kitchen and bathroom remodels, electrical upgrades, and code compliance improvements between 2016-2021.

Several plumbing and electrical permits indicate ongoing maintenance and modernization efforts, including a 2021 sprinkler system upgrade and various appliance installations. Historical records show the building has faced several issues requiring inspection and correction, including a 2016 mold complaint, a 2016 rodent infestation report, and various violations related to interior surfaces, fire safety, and smoke detection between 2002-2016. Recent 311 calls from late 2024 primarily relate to exterior garbage management and street cleaning concerns, suggesting ongoing urban maintenance challenges in the vicinity.

The property's planning records indicate an attempted conversion to eight units through the addition of two ADUs in 2016, though this permit was ultimately cancelled. Two fire-related incidents were recorded in 2020-2021, including one involving sprinkler systems, though no civilian injuries were reported. While the building has experienced various maintenance and compliance challenges over the years, recent renovations and completed safety upgrades suggest significant improvements to the building's overall condition and compliance status.
