5214-5216 Mission St, San Francisco, CA 94112

The property at 5214-5216 Mission Street is a two-unit, two-story mixed-use building constructed in 1931, currently owned by the Arancio Revocable Trust. The building contains both residential and commercial spaces, with recent activity predominantly focused on the commercial portion.

A significant recent development is the pending $92,800 interior remodel of a 1,620 sq ft restaurant, expected to include new kitchen facilities, bathroom, commercial tankless water heater, hood, exhaust fan, and heat pump, with the permit filed in June 2024. In 2022, mandatory disability access improvements were initiated, including door hardware updates and installation of an automatic door opener, along with the replacement of a 75,000 BTU boiler, both completed. The building has experienced several maintenance and safety issues in recent years, most notably a heating system failure reported in November 2022 that took over a month to resolve, and a subsequent complaint about the building's commercial space being vacant as of April 2023.

Historical records show concerns about unauthorized conversions and maintenance violations, including complaints in 2015 regarding illegal unit conversion, pests, and unpermitted remodeling, and a 2016 complaint about commercial space conversion to residential use. The property has undergone various improvements over the decades, including historical permits for kitchen equipment installation (1988), reroofing (1999), and commercial space conversion. Recent activity in early 2025 has generated multiple parking enforcement calls in the vicinity, though these are external to the building's operation.
