The two-story multi-family residential building located at 4970-4974 Mission Street in Mission Terrace, owned by Emilio V Jr & Pacita M Vist, has undergone several significant accessibility improvements since 2019 to comply with the Accessible Business Entrance (ABE) program/ordinance 51-16. Most recently, in October 2023, the property received an upgrade to its exterior with the installation of new fiber cement siding, covering approximately 400 square feet.

This followed the successful installation of wireless doorbells and kick plates in September 2023 at both addresses (4970 and 4974), previous attempts at ADA compliance in 2020 to install new door landings and thresholds, and earlier work in 2020 involving the construction of concrete ramps and landing modifications. The building has also seen essential infrastructure maintenance, including the installation of a new 75-gallon water heater in May 2020 and roofing work completed in 2005.

Recent reports indicate ongoing challenges with the immediate vicinity of the property, particularly in 2024, with multiple 311 calls addressing garbage and debris issues, including furniture, mattresses, and loose garbage on the street. Parking enforcement has been necessary several times in 2024 for vehicles blocking driveways or improperly using sidewalk space, though many of these issues were promptly resolved by responding officers. The property has consistently demonstrated compliance with accessibility requirements, with documentation showing proper permits and approvals for various accessibility improvements, including sidewalk and door threshold replacements.
