12 Sherman St, San Francisco, CA 94103

The property at 12 Sherman Street is a four-story mixed-use building constructed in 2016, containing 5 residential units and commercial space, developed by Pacific Link Inc. The building's construction process began with demolition permits in 2007, followed by new construction permits for the mixed-use building that included significant electrical and plumbing work, including a 400-amp electrical service installation. An important period in the building's history occurred in early 2011 when multiple violations were filed regarding unapproved hazardous electrical work related to marijuana grow rooms, illegal plumbing installations, and unauthorized change of occupancy from storage to agriculture.

These violations, filed on January 11, 2011, were officially abated in March 2016, indicating the building underwent necessary corrections to comply with building codes. The building has undergone several safety and infrastructure improvements since its construction, including the installation of a fire alarm system in 2014 and the addition of electric vehicle charging infrastructure in 2019. Recent 311 calls from late 2024 to early 2025 have primarily concerned graffiti and debris issues around the property, though these appear to be external to the building itself.

The building experienced three fire-related incidents between 2013 and 2018, including a smoke detector activation and two alarm system-related incidents, all of which were resolved without injuries. The property has maintained compliance with fire safety requirements, as evidenced by the "Condition Corrected" disposition for fire complaints in 2013 and 2018. While recent maintenance issues such as graffiti and debris accumulation have been reported, these are typical of urban environments and appear to be promptly addressed by city services.
