366-390 Golden Gate Ave, San Francisco, CA 94102

The 111-unit, 5-story multi-family residential building at 366-390 Golden Gate Avenue was constructed in 1911 and is currently facing several significant maintenance and safety issues. Most notably, there are ongoing concerns regarding the building's dryer vent system, which has prompted multiple complaints and corrective actions throughout 2023-2025. Recent work has included modifications to the dryer vent exhaust (completed August 2024), and there remains an active building complaint as of January 2025 regarding the exhaust fan installation.

The building has also experienced several plumbing and sanitation issues, including problems with the sump pump (resolved November 2023), water discharge, and ventilation concerns in the laundry area. The property has undergone numerous substantial improvements over the past several years, including a fire system replacement and mandatory low-frequency horn upgrade in 2023 (costing over $163,000), and various unit renovations such as kitchen and bathroom upgrades in units 432, 439, and 530. However, the building has a documented history of fire safety violations, including blocked exits and multiple fire code violations between 2022-2025, though many have been corrected.

Maintenance issues recorded in 2022 included problems with damaged ceilings, walls, doors, and water damage that were abated by May 2023. The building's permission records show ongoing improvements to security features, including the recent replacement of exterior mounted security gates (filed August 2024). While the property has maintained active violations regarding sleeping area requirements as of October 2023 and January 2025, most previous violations, including those related to fire doors, electrical conditions, and emergency lighting, have been successfully abated.
