4809 Mission St, San Francisco, CA 94112

The 4-story multi-family residential building at 4809 Mission St, Excelsior, has a complex history dating back to its original construction permit in 2001, which authorized 3 residential units with commercial space. Multiple permit violations were recorded in 2001 and 2003 regarding unauthorized construction of property line walls and occupancy without a Certificate of Final Completion.

Subsequent issues emerged between 2010-2014, including complaints of unauthorized construction, occupancy violations, and numerous fire safety concerns. Recent history shows a pattern of maintenance and compliance issues, with multiple complaints about garbage accumulation and debris (most recently in 2024), a fire sprinkler system violation in 2021, and various permit-related matters. The building also underwent ground-floor retail-to-restaurant conversion in 2019 ($35,000), with associated plumbing work completed in the same year.

Recent permits from 2020 indicate efforts to address previous violations, though historical records suggest ongoing compliance challenges. The property has accumulated numerous 311 calls in 2024 primarily related to sanitation issues, including overflowing garbage and debris. Fire safety violations were notably documented during 2011-2012, focusing on exits/fire escapes, alarm systems, and emergency lighting.
