1272-1274 Dolores St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The two-unit residential building at 1272-1274 Dolores Street in Noe Valley, built in 1908 and owned by Joanne M Signer, has experienced several significant events impacting its structural integrity and resident safety over the years. Most notably, an active building violation from 2006 remains on record regarding foundation failure at the rear of 1272, allegedly caused by undermining from adjacent construction at 1266 Dolores Street.

Between 2009 and 2019, the property underwent various repairs and compliance work, including the installation of front entry handrails and plumbing upgrades with a sewer line and house trap replacement in 2009. A concerning safety incident occurred in May 2017 when a tree fell into the building's front facade, leading to an emergency response inspection that temporarily deemed the building unsafe, though this violation was marked as not active by January 2019. The building's maintenance history includes several structural repairs, such as temporary shoring work at the rear deck/stair in 2007 following a violation notice, and more routine maintenance like roofing work in 2004 involving the installation of new plywood sheathing and asphalt felt.

The property has experienced regular parking enforcement issues, with multiple citations issued between 2021 and 2023 for vehicles blocking the driveway. Additionally, there have been two fire-related incidents recorded, including a false alarm and a smoke detector malfunction, neither resulting in civilian injuries. While the building has had its share of challenges, most recent issues have been primarily related to parking enforcement rather than structural or safety concerns.
