897 Carolina St, San Francisco, CA 94107

The two-unit multi-family residential building at 897 Carolina Street in Potrero Hill, owned by the Kristine A Gardner Trust, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1900. The building's maintenance history shows several significant improvements, including a complete reroofing project in 2004 costing $6,860, and repairs to both front and back stairs and handrails in 1985, which addressed safety concerns.

Additional structural work was completed in 1983 with the construction of a small retaining wall and fence around the front yard. The most recent building-related permit was issued in 2009 for street space and sidewalk usage, with a concurrent complaint about a concrete ramp in the sidewalk that was promptly addressed on the same day. The property has experienced some ongoing neighborhood issues in recent months, particularly related to parking enforcement, with multiple reports of abandoned vehicles and illegal parking between September and December 2024.

While most of these reports were resolved either by officer verification or when vehicles were found to be gone upon inspection, they indicate a persistent parking challenge in the immediate vicinity. Two incidents of garbage and debris on the property or adjacent street were reported in October 2024, with at least one case involving abandoned furniture being resolved. While these recent issues are more frequent than in previous decades, it's worth noting that they primarily relate to street and parking conditions rather than structural or building-specific problems.
