1260 Potrero Ave, San Francisco, CA 94110

The two-unit residential building at 1260 Potrero Avenue in the Inner Mission, owned by Victor Morales-Laimon, is a two-story flats and duplex structure dating back to 1900. The property has undergone several permitted improvements over the years, including a driveway installation in 1995 and a significant interior remodeling project in 1993 that updated the bathroom, laundry room, and kitchen spaces.

More recently, the building has faced multiple challenges, with an open violation as of November 2023 regarding sleeping area requirements, which was previously flagged as a fire complaint. Historical fire safety concerns have been documented, including issues with blocked exits and sprinkler systems in 2019, and problems with fire extinguishers in 2022, though these violations were reportedly corrected in each instance. The property has recently experienced ongoing maintenance and safety issues, particularly in late 2024, when multiple incidents of graffiti were reported on the building's surroundings, including the sidewalk and street areas.

A more serious concern involves an open sidewalk defect reported in October 2024 regarding a collapsed sidewalk. While some cases have been resolved, including a defaced parking sign and various graffiti incidents, the frequency of recent complaints suggests ongoing environmental challenges in the immediate vicinity. The building's documented history includes two driveway-related permits from 1995 and three interior renovation/upgrade permits from the early 1990s, though more recent permitting activity is not recorded in the available data.
