601 Arballo Dr, San Francisco, CA 94132

The 52-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 601 Arballo Drive in Stonestown, owned by Parkmerced Owner LLC, has undergone several significant maintenance and safety upgrades since its construction in 1942. Most notably, the building received multiple roofing projects between 2006-2011, including several reroofing jobs with costs ranging from $4,650 to $25,000, and completed voluntary seismic upgrades in 2006 totaling $49,400.

The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues, including water quality concerns with rusty water reported in 2016, multiple plumbing upgrades (including gas line replacements in 2008 and 2016), and electrical system improvements in 2007-2008 involving the replacement of devices and kitchen wiring. The building faced serious habitability issues in 2017, when multiple complaints were filed regarding mold/mildew on walls, lead paint concerns, and interior surface problems, all of which were officially abated by February 2017.

More recent concerns emerged in 2024 regarding electrical systems, including non-functional safety lights in common areas and power issues in the laundry room, though these were documented as resolved by June 2024. The property has also required ongoing attention to its fire safety systems, with violations regarding sleeping area requirements noted in January 2024, and three fire incidents recorded: a building fire, a dumpster fire, and a motor vehicle accident, though no civilian injuries were reported in any of these events. The building's maintenance history shows consistent attention to major systems, with multiple permits for electrical, plumbing, and roofing work, though some historical violations and complaints indicate periodic maintenance challenges that have required attention from housing inspection services.
