The two-unit residential building at 36-38 Via Ferlinghetti in Telegraph Hill is a two-story flats/duplex structure built in 1906, currently owned by Eddie K Tom Family Trust. The property has experienced various maintenance and compliance issues over the years, with the most recent significant event being a construction-related noise complaint filed in June 2024 that remains open as of October 2023. The building's history includes a 2013 complaint about a noise-causing object on a rear pole, though this issue's resolution status is unclear. The property has had multiple general cleaning and waste management issues reported through 311 calls between 2022 and 2024, particularly related to sidewalk cleanliness and waste removal, with several cases involving human or animal waste.

These reports suggest ongoing challenges with exterior maintenance, particularly in the surrounding area. Notably, in June 2023, there was a fire complaint regarding blocked exits, though this was eventually determined to have no merit by July 2023. The building's fire safety history includes a sprinkler service violation recorded on July 8, 2009, though this violation was subsequently closed. Additional fire complaints were filed in December 2009, with varying outcomes including corrected conditions and issuance of violations.

The property has experienced a recurring pattern of waste management and cleaning issues in the immediate vicinity, particularly during 2023, when multiple reports were made regarding loose garbage and waste. This led to interactions with local businesses regarding cleanliness concerns, particularly involving Tony's Pizza. While many of these 311 calls were resolved, they indicate an ongoing challenge with exterior property maintenance in the building's vicinity. The most concerning recent issues involve the open construction noise complaint filed in June 2024 and the previously noted noise disturbance from a pole-mounted object reported in 2013.
