23-25 Cotter St, San Francisco, CA 94112

The two-unit multi-family residential building at 23-25 Cotter Street in Mission Terrace is a two-story flats and duplex structure owned by Marykaye Hill, dating back to 1919. The property has undergone several permitted modifications, including significant renovations in 1999-2000 that involved creating a new family room, constructing a bathroom, repairing stairs, and adding a laundry room on the ground floor. These improvements, while documented as properly permitted, occurred over two decades ago, with no recent major modifications recorded.

The building has experienced recurring parking-related issues in late 2024, with multiple documented cases of driveway blocking between October and December 2024, resulting in some citations being issued, though not all enforcement attempts were successful. A sidewalk defect caused by tree roots was reported in November 2024 and remains open. The property has a history of false fire alarm incidents, with three documented alarm system complaints (2011, 2017, and 2024), though only the 2017 incident required correction.

Two fire-related calls were recorded, including a smoke detector activation with no fire (743) and a false alarm (700), both with no civilian injuries reported. The most significant recent event affecting the local area was a large tenant buyout of $100,000 involving six tenants at 14 Francis Street in August 2024, though this occurred at a different building nearby. The building's historical records show generally proper maintenance of legal requirements regarding renovations and safety systems, but the recent concentration of parking enforcement issues suggests ongoing challenges with off-street parking management.
