A $5,000 permit for a stair railing replacement at 835 Alabama St — the second OTC alteration at the address this month — sits at the quieter end of a busy stretch, as Alabama Street logs $180,000 in other permit filings and the Mission racks up 41 eviction notices in 90 days.

The city issued permit 202607235480 on July 23 for 835 Alabama Street in the Mission — a stair railing replacement, described in city records as "like for like," estimated at $5,000. The single-family dwelling at the address stays a single-family dwelling; no change of use is proposed.

It is the second OTC alteration filed at the same property in July. On July 15, a $500 permit (202607155098) was also issued at 835 Alabama.

Both are modest beside the other recent activity on the street. A $180,000 OTC alterations permit (202607134922) was filed July 13 at 298 Alabama; an $8,500 permit (202607155084) was issued July 15 at 1062 Alabama.

The Mission has 41 eviction notices filed in the last 90 days and 2,258 311 requests logged in the last seven days. Against that count, a stair railing barely registers — but that is the point. Someone walking past 835 Alabama tomorrow would see the same house, the same front steps, a new railing where the old one was.
