1345 California St, San Francisco, CA 94109

The 8-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 1345 California Street, owned by D'arcy Lvg Tr, was built in 1960 and has experienced several notable events throughout its history. Most significantly, the property underwent a major renovation in 2014 with a $20,900 reroofing project. In 2017, there were serious concerns about lead paint, with multiple complaints regarding chipping paint both inside and outside the building, though these issues were ultimately resolved.

A comprehensive set of violations was documented in March 2010, including multiple fire safety concerns, interior maintenance issues such as mold and mildew, and plumbing safety requirements, all of which were abated by May 2010. More recent maintenance challenges have emerged, particularly in 2023, with multiple reports of graffiti (including at least one instance being classified as offensive) and a documented encampment-related issue near the property. The building has generally complied with major safety requirements, as evidenced by the resolution of the 2010 fire safety violations, including the fixing of emergency exits and fire alarm system certification.

Other historical complaints include a 2004 incident regarding malfunctioning stoves and a 2002 routine inspection. Recent 311 calls primarily relate to exterior maintenance and public space concerns rather than internal building issues, though the frequency of graffiti reports in 2023 is notable, with at least five documented instances between March and September 2023. The property's history shows a pattern of addressing violations when cited, with the most recent building permit (reroofing) indicating ongoing property maintenance, though the persistence of graffiti issues in 2023 suggests some challenges with exterior upkeep.
