1183-1185 Howard St, San Francisco, CA 94103

The two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building at 1183-1185 Howard Street, owned by 1183 Howard Street LLC, was constructed in 1907 in the South of Market neighborhood. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the past decades, including rear porch window replacements in 2012, an electrical system upgrade from fusers to breakers in 2013, and reroofing in 2000.

A tenant buyout occurred in February 2019, involving one tenant with a compensation of $20,000. The property has experienced recurring fire safety concerns, with multiple historical complaints about blocked exits (2017 and 2019), sprinkler/standpipe systems (2024), and various uncategorized issues (2009-2011), though most were resolved promptly.

An active commercial vacancy complaint was filed in March 2023, and the building's recent history has seen numerous 311 calls between late 2024 and early 2025, primarily regarding encampments and garbage issues in the surrounding area. The building's fire incident record shows several false alarms and system malfunctions, with one recorded cooking fire in a container that resulted in no civilian injuries. The property's maintenance history includes multiple street space permits (2019) and shows regular attention to infrastructure upgrades, though recent complaints about building vacancies and surrounding area conditions may merit attention.
