1934-1938 Mason St, San Francisco, CA 94133

The three-unit multi-family residential building at 1934-1938 Mason Street in North Beach was constructed in 1907 and has undergone various significant maintenance and safety-related improvements over its lifetime. Most notably, the building experienced a series of important safety inspections and violations in 2004-2005, including issues with windows, lead paint hazards, and multiple fire safety concerns, all of which were abated by March 2005.

The property has seen regular maintenance work, including aluminum window installations in 1988-1989, fire sprinkler repairs and related work in 1988, and addressing dry rot issues in the back stairway in 1996. In more recent years, there have been three notable tenant-related complaints: a lack of hot water in March 2014, no heat and window issues in 2005, and a routine safety inspection in 2015. Most recently, there have been multiple reports of garbage and debris issues around the property in 2022-2024, with the most recent being resolved in October 2024.

There was one fire incident involving a carbon monoxide detector activation that resulted in no injuries or CO detection. The building's records show consistent attention to safety and maintenance requirements over the years, with most issues being promptly addressed, though the cluster of violations in 2004-2005 suggests a period of some maintenance challenges. The property is currently owned by Jow Howard & Edmund C and remains classified as a three-story flats and duplex building.
