1401-1407 Rhode Island St, San Francisco, CA 94107

The property at 1401-1407 Rhode Island Street is a 4-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building located in Potrero Hill, constructed in 1907 and currently owned by Phil W Arnold & Monique J Z. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over its history, with the most recent being a window replacement completed in May 2024, which involved installing a retrofit wood window with improved energy efficiency (U-factor 0.30) at a cost of $4,407. In early 2004, the building faced multiple violations related to broken glass and stair repairs, though these issues were promptly addressed and abated by February 2004.

The roof received attention in 2003 when a complete reroofing project was undertaken at a cost of $8,780. Recent concerns have primarily centered around sewer infrastructure and general maintenance issues in the vicinity of the building. Between August and September 2024, there were two notable sewer-related incidents: one involving sewage back-up discharge from a side sewer vent and another related to sewer odor, both of which were resolved by the Public Utilities Commission.

The building's surroundings have experienced recurring issues with debris and flooding, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls in 2024. A flooding incident on the street was reported in December 2023, and there have been several reports of abandoned items on the street, including mattresses and furniture. The property has maintained compliance with building codes since addressing the 2004 violations, with no active violations on record as of October 2023.
