1255 Rhode Island St, San Francisco, CA 94107

The two-unit residential building at 1255 Rhode Island Street in Potrero Hill is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1900, currently owned by the Schachter Family Revocable Living Trust. The building has undergone several major maintenance projects over the years, including reroofing in 1991 and front stairway repairs in 1999.

A significant cluster of housing code violations was documented in March 2007, with the property cited for multiple issues including inadequate lighting, stair safety concerns, handrail problems, interior surface violations, mold and mildew on walls, a broken window pane, and interior maintenance issues. All of these violations were officially abated by April 16, 2007.

More recent history of the property shows ongoing maintenance challenges in the vicinity, particularly regarding sidewalk conditions, with a sidewalk defect call recorded in October 2024 regarding tree root uplift (currently open). There has been a noticeable pattern of garbage and debris reports near the property throughout 2023-2024, with several calls regarding loose garbage, yard waste, and abandoned furniture requiring attention from Street and Environmental Services and Recology. While these external maintenance issues have been addressed under various cases, they represent an ongoing concern in the immediate area surrounding the building.
