862-866 Potrero Ave, San Francisco, CA 94110

The property at 862-866 Potrero Ave is a two-story, three-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1904, currently owned by Laura Tood Hare and Jeffrey Hare. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the years, with the most substantial renovation occurring in 2009-2010 when ground floor rear storage space was converted into habitable space, including a full bath and rec room, with associated upgrades to framing, windows, plumbing, and electrical systems. This renovation included the installation of a fire sprinkler system, garage modifications, and various code compliance improvements.

More recently, in 2016, solar energy systems were installed, comprising two separate rooftop installations with a total capacity of 5.40 kW, along with an electrical service panel upgrade. The building has experienced some regulatory challenges in recent years, with the most significant issue arising in May 2024 when multiple building code violations were documented related to improper paint removal practices, including concerns about lead paint handling and inadequate safety measures. These violations were ultimately abated by July 2024.

Prior to this, in 2022, there was a complaint regarding blight and peeling lead paint. The property has also faced some infrastructure issues, particularly concerning the sidewalk, with multiple reports in 2022 regarding collapsed sidewalks and utility vault concerns, though these were resolved through municipal intervention. 311 call records from recent years show recurring issues typical of urban settings, including graffiti, sidewalk defects, and general street cleaning needs, with most cases being resolved by city services. The building's safety record shows one documented gas leak incident, though no civilian injuries were reported.
