1406-1408 Rhode Island St, San Francisco, CA 94107

The duplex property at 1406-1408 Rhode Island Street in Potrero Hill is a two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1908 and owned by Robert G. Mckeen. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the past two decades.

Most recently, in March 2021, repairs were made to an exterior wall on the north side, including patching a 10-square-foot area, installing electrical cover plates, and removing light fixtures from an old ceiling in a storage room, with a total cost of $1,500. In 2013, the building underwent a furnace replacement, though this work initially prompted violations when performed without proper permits, leading to inspection notices in May 2013; these violations were subsequently abated by October 2013. Historical records show that the building experienced fire damage in 1984, which was fully repaired, and in 2005, an exterior wooden stair replacement was completed at a cost of $15,000. The property has had minimal recent issues, with only routine maintenance matters being recorded.

Two recent 311 calls in late 2023 (December and November) were related to street parking and hazardous materials (glass) on the sidewalk, while a sidewalk defect report from 2018 regarding a collapsed section remains open. The building has two documented fire service calls: one for a carbon monoxide detector activation that resulted in no CO detection, and another for a non-specific service call, neither of which involved civilian injuries. The property management has generally addressed maintenance issues as they arise, with no active violations on record as of the latest data. Recent permit activity and 311 calls suggest regular exterior maintenance and response to urban infrastructure issues, though there appears to be one outstanding sidewalk defect from 2018 that has not been resolved in the records available through October 2023.
