1034 Vallejo St, San Francisco, CA 94133

The three-story multi-family residential building at 1034 Vallejo Street in Russian Hill, owned by the Janet Carter Revocable Trust, is a duplex property constructed in 1906. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the years, with major renovations occurring in 2013 including a complete roof replacement (cost: $46,500), comprehensive kitchen and bathroom remodels in both units (cost: $150,000), electrical system upgrade with full rewiring and new lighting (cost: $150,000), and plumbing improvements including installation of gas fireplaces and shower pans.

Structural safety measures were implemented in 2000 and 2006 with voluntary seismic strengthening of cripple walls, sill plate anchorage, and foundation work (costs: $24,000 and $20,000 respectively). More recent issues have raised concerns about building safety and maintenance, particularly regarding fire safety systems. In December 2024, the building received violations related to sprinkler/standpipe systems, with previous fire safety concerns documented in 2020-2023 including alarm system malfunctions, multiple fire code violations, and blocked exit concerns.

The property has experienced several false alarm incidents with the fire alarm system, though no actual fires or civilian injuries have been reported. The building's immediate surroundings have seen various municipal service calls, primarily related to parking issues and street maintenance, with two pavement defect reports in 2021-2022, though these external factors do not directly impact building safety or habitability. The most recent open case to note is from December 2021 regarding a temporary moving sign request, which is still listed as open.
