427 Chestnut St, San Francisco, CA 94133

The 6-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 427 Chestnut St in North Beach, owned by Wong Trust The, has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects since its construction in 1932. The most notable recent improvement was a complete window replacement project in 2018, costing $40,000, which involved installing wood windows in the front and wood evt-clad windows in the side and rear.

The building has also received attention to its plumbing infrastructure, with completed projects in 2019 involving outside sewer/house trap installation, and in 2013 addressing broken roof drain and bathtub drain pipes. The property has experienced periodic routine inspections by Housing Inspection Services, with the most recent in December 2015 revealing multiple issues requiring attention, including concerns about water damage, lead paint hazards, gas line maintenance, and the need for updated smoke detectors and safety equipment.

While all these violations were officially abated by February 2016, their occurrence highlights a period of maintenance challenges. The building has also been subject to multiple 311 calls regarding driveway blocking issues, with at least eight documented cases between 2020 and 2023, resulting in several citations being issued and some cases being resolved when officers were unable to locate the offending vehicles. An entertainment-related noise complaint was logged in November 2023, though this appears to be a relatively recent and potentially minor issue compared to the building's historical maintenance concerns.
