853 Alabama St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building at 853 Alabama Street in San Francisco's Inner Mission neighborhood was built in 1900 and is currently owned by Francisco A. Chavez. The property has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the years, including reroofing work in 2013 ($9,000), repair of front stair stucco wall in 2004 ($2,500), and siding replacement at the rear of the building in 1989.

More recently, in 2014, there was an attempt to install a 5-ton horizontal furnace in the upstairs closet, though this permit is now listed as expired. The building's maintenance history shows some concern for resident safety and building conditions, particularly in a single incident on October 25, 2007, when multiple fire violations were recorded, including obstruction of means of egress, vacant building security issues, accumulation of combustible waste, and poor housekeeping concerns. All these violations were subsequently closed.

The property has experienced recurring issues with sidewalk parking, with eight documented incidents between 2018 and 2024, though these typically resulted in officers being unable to locate the offending vehicles. Additionally, there have been several reports of human or animal waste on or near the property in 2024, suggesting ongoing challenges with street cleanliness in the immediate vicinity. The most recent documented issues involve parking violations in September and August 2024, though in both cases, officers were unable to locate the vehicles in question.
