1136-1138 Alabama St, San Francisco, CA 94110

This two-unit residential building, constructed in 1902 and classified as a flats/duplex structure, has experienced several significant events over its history, with particular attention to a notable fire incident in 2013. That year saw fire damage to the building's rear section, requiring $43,000 in repairs to restore the structure and replace damaged stair components.

The restoration included the installation of new electrical systems, comprising a 60-amp subpanel, smoke detectors, and electrical fixtures on the rear decks, all completed by early 2014. The building has undergone various maintenance and improvement projects, including window replacements in 2004 (11 windows installed), and historically documented repairs to address dry rot and structural issues in 1998. Of particular concern is a building complaint filed in July 2021, which reported multiple issues including unauthorized work beyond permit scope, potential illegal unit modifications, and safety concerns, though this complaint is currently listed as not active.

The property has been the subject of numerous parking enforcement issues in recent months (2023-2024), including multiple citations for sidewalk and driveway blockages. There are also some ongoing infrastructure concerns, with recent reports of overhead obstructions near the sidewalk, though some related issues have been addressed. The building's documented history shows regular maintenance and compliance activity, though the 2021 complaint and recent parking enforcement issues suggest ongoing challenges related to property management and neighborhood interactions.
