372 Vallejo St, San Francisco, CA 94133

The three-story, six-unit multi-family residential building at 372 Vallejo Street in Telegraph Hill, owned by David and Iva Lee, was constructed in 1910 and has undergone several significant maintenance and safety-related improvements over its history. The most recent and notable work involved legalizing and repairing the roof deck in 2018, which included replacing the deck cover with redwood and updating the rail system, following concerns about safety and compliance that had been raised by tenants.

The building has experienced periods of serious safety concerns, particularly in 2002-2004, when multiple violations were documented including issues with fire safety, security requirements, and egress compliance, though these were all eventually abated. Earlier structural work included reroofing in 1994, garage door replacement in 2003 to meet compliance requirements, and a water heater relocation in 1996. The property has shown consistent attention to maintenance and compliance issues when they arise, with records indicating prompt responses to violations and implementation of necessary repairs or upgrades.

Recent records from 2023-2024 show recurring issues with abandoned vehicles and sidewalk blockage outside the building, though these are primarily street-level concerns managed by city agencies and not directly related to the building's conditions or management. While there have been various complaints and inspection records over the years, the most critical safety issues appear to have been addressed through appropriate permits and repairs, particularly the safety concerns regarding the roof deck that were documented in 2017-2018. The building's permit history shows regular maintenance work being conducted, with the most recent permits in 2019-2020 related to street space usage.
